Ideal Electrical Suppliers - New Plymouth

04/09/2026

An evening of elegance, celebration and a little mystery marked an extraordinary milestone — 90 years of Ideal Electrical and nine decades of powering New Zealand’s electrical industry.

Set against the spectacular backdrop of MOTAT Aviation Museum, guests dressed in black tie and gathered amongst the wings of iconic aircrafts, creating an unforgettable atmosphere of sophistication and celebration.

The evening continued with live music, dancing and an exciting mystery luggage reveal, featuring an incredible $25,000 in prizes — all cleverly themed around the number 90 or 1936!

Most importantly, it was a chance to celebrate the people, partnerships and relationships that have helped make 90 years of Ideal Electrical possible.
Thank you to Cuthbert Stewart, Marley New Zealand, JinkoSolar Australia & New Zealand, Klein Tools New Zealand, Schneider Electric, Computer Dynamics NZ, Firstflex Cables, Thorn Lighting, Simx, Signify, Legrand New Zealand, Ektor Lighting, Milwaukee Tools NZ, NHP Electrical Engineering Products, Incentive Solutions, Brother NZ & Electra Cables.

90 years in the industry. 90 years of relationships. 90 years of memories.
Here’s to an incredible milestone — and to the next chapter of Ideal Electrical!
