An independent wholesaler,owned and run in Victoria
Four branches, a projects division and a trade counter that answers the phone. We stock deep, pick accurately and deliver when we said we would.
Thirty years of
answering the phone
Active Electrical Distributors has supplied Victoria's electrical trade since 1996. We are independent and Australian-owned, which means the person who answers your call can make a decision rather than escalate one.
Contractors, panel builders and OEMs buy from us because the stock is on the shelf, the pick is right, and the delivery turns up when we said it would. Our projects division handles the larger jobs end to end, from take-off and lighting schedules through to staged delivery on site.
No call centres, no ticket queues. Branch managers you can reach by name.
We’ve been powering Australian projects since 1996, trusted by contractors, utilities and OEMs for safety, availability and service that shows up.
Founded in Victoria in 1996, we set out to make electrical supply simple: deep stock, practical advice and deliveries that arrive when we promise. Today we support commercial, industrial and infrastructure projects across Australia with the right product at the right time.
Our teams combine product knowledge with real jobsite experience. We help contractors choose smarter, balancing brand preferences with value-engineered options, while meeting AS/NZS standards and safety requirements.
Whether it’s a shutdown, fit‑out or fast‑track build, we reduce risk with reliable availability, clear communication and service that shows up.
