-
Properly designed wiring architecture

Labelled and documented installs
-
Future expansion built-in

Reduced vehicle downtime
-

Many vehicles we see are fitted quickly but not engineered, leading to faults months later.
​
We build them to last years.
Accredited & Manufacturer Approved Installers
When electrical systems are critical to safety and operational response, installation quality matters as much as the equipment itself.
​
Commercial Auto Electrics are proud members of the Association of Vehicle Installers (AVI) and work closely with leading emergency vehicle and fleet equipment manufacturers. This ensures installations are completed to recognised industry standards using correct wiring methods, configuration procedures and system integration practices.
​
Unlike general auto electricians, specialist vehicle installations require understanding of load management, electrical architecture, EMC considerations and long-term serviceability — not just mounting products and connecting power.
We regularly install and support equipment from industry-recognised manufacturers across warning lighting, power management, camera systems and control electronics.

Reduced electrical faults and nuisance issues

Equipment operating as designed by the manufacturer
-
Safer operation for drivers and operators

Compliance with fleet and operational policies

Easier maintenance and future upgrades
Any professional installer should be willing to demonstrate accreditation or industry membership, it’s one of the clearest indicators of a legitimate specialist rather than a general accessory fitter.
