Owner-operated. Fully licensed and insured.
Clear, safe electrical work for Canberra homes and businesses.
Calling an electrician should never feel like a gamble. Will they explain what's actually wrong? Will they show up when promised? Will the quote make sense?
We get it. That's why we do things differently.
About It's Lit Electrical
Who this is for?
If you want an electrician who:
• explains what’s involved before starting
• confirms scope before pricing
• takes responsibility for the work end-to-end
• follows Australian Standards without cutting corners
You’re in the right place.
Most problems with electrical work come from rushed decisions or assumptions.
How we approach the work?
Our approach is deliberately slower at the start, so there are no surprises later.
- We talk through the job and your concerns
- A site visit is done if assumptions would affect safety or cost
- Scope is confirmed before pricing
- Work is scheduled and documented
- Installation is completed safely and neatly
- Testing and verification are carried out
- Final checks and explanation before leaving
About It's Lit Electrical
Hi! I'm James! And here's why I started my electrical business.
I'm Belconnen born and raised. After years as an electrician in Canberra, I noticed a common issue: tradies often couldn’t or wouldn’t explain their work. They always seem to struggle to share why it matters or what it truly costs.
So I started It's Lit Electrical with a simple idea: what if an electrical service actually put people first?
What that means for you:
- Free quotes that actually mean something.
- Clear communication. We explain what we're doing and why.
- Honest advice. Even if it means less work for us.
- We take time to listen. Good service starts with understanding what you actually need.
Growing up as a local Canberran in Belconnen, I understand the value of community and connection. Whether it's a small electrical repair or a major installation, we take pride in doing the job right and making the process easy for you.
The reality: We're a local team serving the local Canberra community. We might not be the biggest, but that means when you call, you're talking to someone who knows your job, not a call centre.

Are you licensed and insured in the ACT?
Yes. It’s Lit Electrical & Data is fully licensed and insured to carry out electrical work in the ACT. All work is completed in line with applicable Australian standards and local regulations.
This looks like a newer business — Should I be concerned?
Not necessarily. While It’s Lit Electrical is a newer brand, the work itself is not new. Jobs are scoped carefully, quoted clearly, and carried out directly by the person you speak to. That means fewer handovers, clearer communication, and direct accountability from start to finish.
Who will actually do the work at my property?
The same person you speak to about the job will be the one carrying out the work. There’s no subcontracting or hand-offs, so communication stays clear and responsibility stays with one person throughout the job.
How do you avoid surprise costs?
Work is discussed and scoped before it begins, and a quote is provided upfront. If anything unexpected comes up once work starts, it’s discussed before proceeding so you can make an informed decision.
What happens if something needs fixing after the job?
If an issue comes up related to the work completed, it’s addressed directly. The goal is to leave each job finished properly, not rushed or unresolved.
You don’t have many reviews yet — should that worry me?
Reviews tend to build over time. What matters more is that you’re dealing directly with the person doing the work, with clear communication and defined scope before anything starts. If you have questions or want to understand how a job will be handled, those can be discussed upfront.
Let's Get Started
If you’re unsure where to start, talk through your job first.
