Stuart Whelan

Stuart Whelan is the principal electrician and Director of Recon Electrical. Starting his career in 1988 in Melbourne, Stuart transitioned from industrial maintenance to industrial installation, control panel design and working on complex commercial projects.

Moving away from the big smoke to Alice Springs, Stuart was attracted to this alien world and the vast landscape of the central desert. He started his own business and expands his skills, where he was able to delve into different industries, like commercial appliance repair, air conditioning, refrigeration and domestic work in all sorts of extreme weather and circumstances. From attempting to repair an oven with a whole kangaroo it, to working inside roofs on a 50 degree day; the outback stretched Stuart’s capabilities.

Stuart has worked closely with real estate agents, builders, architects, small business owners, government agencies and home owners and specialises in control panel design and the repair of commercial appliances for supermarkets, hotels, cafés and restaurants. Now back in Melbourne, Stuart is eager to bring his new customers that same reliable service and a reputation for hard work and honesty; he gained in the red centre.
