Electrical services in Ohrid

Ohrid is the tourist centre of North Macedonia, and that is exactly what makes electrical work here different from other towns. In the Old Town (Varos) there are traditional houses with old wiring that needs careful, tidy renewal, and across the town there are apartments, villas and hotels that run at full load in the summer - air conditioning, water heaters, kitchen equipment - so any fault in season means a direct loss for the owners.

Elektro TR works across North Macedonia and comes from Skopje to Ohrid for booked appointments and for emergency callouts. We are most often called out to replace old cabling and distribution boards, to prepare holiday accommodation before the season, for lighting and for fault finding.

Typical electrical needs in Ohrid

Because of the old town centre, the lake and the town's tourist character:

Old houses in Varos

The traditional houses in the Old Town often have worn cabling and boards with ceramic fuses. We replace them carefully, with minimal chasing and a neat finish.

Apartments and accommodation

Before the season we check the wiring, add separate circuits for air conditioning and water heaters and fit new sockets - so your guests have no interruptions in the middle of summer.

Damp near the lake

In buildings close to the water, damp attacks the electrics - outdoor sockets, garden lighting, cellars. Working RCD protection and good earthing are essential.

Restaurants and cafes

The hospitality venues on the promenade and in the bazaar have three-phase kitchen equipment and terrace lighting - we help with installations, faults and maintenance throughout the season.

The services we offer in Ohrid

How we organise the journey from Skopje

Ohrid is about 170 km from Skopje, roughly 2 and a half hours by car. That is why we book appointments in advance and arrive with all the equipment and materials, and when there are several smaller jobs in the town, we group them into the same visit so the journey is shared. For larger works (rewiring a house, a complete installation in apartments) we draw up a multi-day schedule and the whole job is agreed in advance.
