Electrician in Wodonga

Wodonga is the Victorian half of the twin city, across the Murray from Albury.

Wodonga 3690

About Wodonga

It started as a customs post facing Albury and grew once the first bridge over the Murray opened in 1860. The local Waywurru name, Wordonga, refers to an edible plant or nut found in the lagoons. In 2010 the railway was moved out of the town centre to a new line and station to the north.

At the 2021 Census Wodonga had 8,169 occupied homes, the most of any area Tomo covers, and 37% were rented. Electrical work here falls under Victoria's rules, and Tomo works under them through automatic mutual recognition of his NSW licence.

From 13 October 2026, every Victorian rental needs gas and electrical safety checks every two years, whenever the lease started. Tomo does the electrical check to the Australian standard and writes up the report.
