What Makes MV Electrical Different?
What makes MV Electrical different from other solar and electrical companies in the area?
We don’t just install solar panels — we deliver full energy efficiency solutions with integrity, precision, and no shortcuts.
Our wiring is clean and hidden behind cladding whenever possible, our installs are fully certified, and our team is known for being friendly, honest, and highly trained.
We’re also proud members of Master Electricians and SEANZ, which means your project is in expert hands.
Do you hire subcontractors?
No — all our installations are carried out by our own in-house team. This ensures every job meets our high quality standards, safety protocols, and clean installation aesthetic. You’ll always know exactly who’s working on your home.
How does MV Electrical ensure safety on every job?
Safety is a top priority. Our technicians follow strict safety procedures, including the use of roof harness systems and portable scaffolding.
All work is performed in compliance with New Zealand safety standards, and we stay up to date with regular training and certifications.
What does it mean to be a Master Electrician and SEANZ Member?
Being a Master Electrician means we meet the highest electrical industry standards in workmanship, safety, and ongoing professional development. Our SEANZ (Sustainable Energy Association NZ) membership aligns us with New Zealand’s best solar professionals, ensuring we remain at the forefront of renewable energy practices.
Customer Process & Communication
What is it like working with MV Electrical from first contact to final install?
From the moment you reach out, we keep things simple and stress-free. We gather all the details we need upfront, provide a tailored quote after a site visit or photo review, and follow up with you if we haven’t heard back.
Once the quote is approved, we book your install, organise materials, and complete the job efficiently — typically within 2–3 days. Every project ends with full certification and a clear invoice.
How is communication handled throughout the process?
We believe in open, clear communication. You’ll be kept in the loop from quote to completion, and we’re always available by phone or email if questions come up. We also follow up after quotes are sent and keep you informed at each stage of your project.
Is there someone I can speak to if I have questions post-install?
Yes — our team is always available after your install is complete. Whether you need support, advice, or just have a quick question about your system, we’re here to help. We stand by our work and offer ongoing customer support you can count on.

As members of Master Electricians and SEANZ, we’re committed to upskilling our team and maintaining the highest level of technical expertise.
How do you make sure your work looks clean and professional?
We take pride in our workmanship — that includes aesthetics. We integrate wiring behind cladding wherever possible, avoid visible conduits on residential homes, and use high-quality mounting systems to ensure a sleek, clean finish that adds value to your home.
Warranties & Ongoing Support

We provide full warranties as offered by our equipment suppliers — including Suntech, Goodwe, Sungrow, and Sigenergy.
We also issue a Certificate of Compliance (COC) on all completed work, so you have peace of mind knowing everything is up to code and protected.
