Electrician installing a home battery and inverter

Home Battery Installation

$0 call-out, 7am–3pm weekdays24/7 emergencies4.9 on Google

Landmark Electrical installs home batteries across Sydney and Melbourne, either with a new solar system or added to the solar you already have. We size the battery to how your household uses power, install it to the battery installation standard (AS/NZS 5139), and set up monitoring so you can see what it is doing. Call 0405 091 456 for a free quote.

A battery stores solar power you would otherwise export for a small feed-in credit, then runs your home in the evening when grid power costs the most. Some systems can also keep selected circuits running during a blackout.

Battery options

Adding a battery to existing solar

Most solar systems can take a battery. Depending on your inverter, we fit an AC-coupled battery with its own inverter, or replace the inverter with a hybrid unit that runs both panels and battery.

Solar and battery together

If you are starting from scratch, a hybrid inverter with a battery is usually the neater and cheaper way to do it, with one inverter and one monitoring app.

Blackout backup

Not every battery provides backup on its own. Backup needs the right battery and a changeover or backup gateway, and we can set it up to cover the whole home or just essential circuits such as the fridge, lights and internet.

Before you buy

Sizing

We look at your power bills and solar output to size the battery. Too small and it runs flat early in the evening. Too big and part of it never gets used.

Location

The battery standard sets rules for where batteries can go, including clearances from windows, doors and habitable rooms. Garages and outside walls out of direct sun are common spots.

Switchboard capacity

Older switchboards may need an upgrade to take the battery and backup circuits. We check this before quoting, so it is in the price rather than a surprise on the day.

Rebates

The federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program discounts eligible batteries installed from 1 July 2025. The system must be an approved product installed by an accredited installer. We will confirm eligibility with your quote.

Common questions

How big a battery do I need?

It depends on how much power you use after the sun goes down. Many homes use somewhere between 10 and 15 kWh overnight, but your bills tell the real story, and we size from those.

Will a battery work in a blackout?

Only if the system is set up for backup. Tell us at quote time if backup matters to you and we will include it.

Can I add a battery later?

Yes. If you are installing solar now and a battery later, a battery-ready hybrid inverter keeps the future job simpler.

Do you install the battery and do the electrical work?

Yes, we handle the electrical side from start to finish, including any switchboard changes and the compliance paperwork.

Landmark came quickly to quote and once I accepted the quote the work was scheduled. The team rang before they arrived and got on and did the work. They also cleaned up after themselves which was lovely to see. Highly recommend these guys.

Landmark technicians who worked on our office lighting were easy to communicate with and coordinated seamlessly with our office schedule. They collected the light fitting I chose and the installation was done in no time. Fast, friendly and professional! Highly recommended!
