Even if you’re still just starting the business or you’re upgrading, it is crucial to understand the importance of wiring, safety, and electrical services for a commercial food truck fitout.

Why Electrical Fitouts Are Essential for Food Trucks

As a compact commercial kitchen on wheels, a food truck needs to have careful planning similar to a cafe or a restaurant despite its smaller space. With its capacity to power up from cooking appliances to lighting and point-of-sale systems, your food truck should be designed to achieve safety and efficiency while being compliant with the standards.

Not having a proper planning, will risk:

• Overloaded circuits from high-demand appliances like fryers, fridges, and ovens.

  
  

• Power interruptions that might interrupt your operations

  
  

• Safety hazards if non-compliant of the wiring Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000).
