Electrical suppliers in Taman Johor Jaya, Johor Bahru

Taman Johor Jaya sits on the eastern side of Johor Bahru, and it has one of the densest clusters of electrical supply shops in the city. Most of them are within a few streets of each other along Jalan Seroja 39, Jalan Bakawali 48 to 52, the Jalan Ros Merah 2 rows and Jalan Dedap. They’re not interchangeable. Some are switchgear, cable and automation counters that work with contractors and panel builders. Others are neighbourhood electrical shops for wire, switches, breakers and fans. Twelve are mainly lighting shops and showrooms, for chandeliers, decorative and LED lights, fans and water heaters. Two supply specialist parts, motor-rewinding materials and control transformers, and seven hardware and home-fittings stores carry a small electrical range.

Below, a brand’s own dealer list is kept apart from a shop’s signboard or website. Many of these shops are on Philips Lighting Malaysia’s where-to-buy list. That list covers Philips lighting only, so it says nothing about switchgear. Brand signs and website brand lists show what a shop promotes, not what it has on the shelf today. This is a starting list for the area, not a complete one.

If you need a particular brand, start with the shops named on that brand’s own list. Schneider Electric’s distributor directory names Maydenki and Genuine Electric. Hager Malaysia’s dealer list names Genuine Electric and Actgen Industry, and Maxguard’s names those two plus Synoview. CHINT Malaysia’s Johor distributor list names Maydenki, YSE Electric and SN Electric. Being on a list still doesn’t mean a given part is on the shelf, so ask with the part number.

Switchgear, cable and project suppliers

Maydenki Sdn Bhd — profile

Maydenki sells low-voltage switchgear and industrial equipment, and it also does engineering work on top of the supply side. Its advertised ranges run from everyday Acti9 modular protection up to Masterpact and Compact breakers for main switchboards, plus automation and control gear from ABB, Siemens, Omron and Yaskawa and its own SONKO current transformers and capacitor-bank panels. The engineering it advertises includes power-quality monitoring and data logging, power-factor correction projects from measurement through commissioning and maintenance, and diagnostics and repair for Schneider variable-speed drives and soft-starters. If your job is a switchboard upgrade, a power-quality problem or a failed drive rather than a single breaker, that combination is worth knowing about. Schneider Electric’s distributor directory lists Maydenki, and so does CHINT Malaysia’s Johor distributor list. Maydenki is part of ACO Group Berhad, a Malaysian electrical-products distributor listed on Bursa Malaysia. Find it at 108 & 110, Jalan Seroja 39, or call 07-351 1671.

Synoview Electric Sdn Bhd — profile

Synoview is a low-voltage distribution counter built around Schneider, supplying circuit breakers, busbars, enclosures, panel boards and switchboards — the parts a contractor or panel builder works through regularly. Schneider’s distributor directory doesn’t name it, but Maxguard’s dealer list does. Its own site names Himel, ABB, Siemens, Philips, Toshiba and SGB alongside Schneider, and its storefront carries Schneider Electric’s “Life Is On” fascia with SGB MY, Lenze and Himel branding. It’s at No. 40, Jalan Bakawali 48. Call 07-355 3121, WhatsApp 010-838 3829 or email [email protected].

Genuine Electric Sdn Bhd — profile

Genuine Electric is a general electrical supply shop, and the reason to keep it in mind is that it appears in both Schneider Electric’s and Hager’s Johor Bahru distributor records, as well as Maxguard’s dealer list. If you’re weighing a Schneider device against a Hager or Maxguard equivalent for the same job, this is one shop you can ask about all three instead of making several trips. It’s at 126, Jalan Ros Merah 2/16 — call 07-352 5722.

Actgen Industry — profile

Actgen is an electrical-products distributor owned by ACO Group, like Maydenki a few doors along. It supplies cable and wire with a cable-cutting service, distribution and protection devices, and electrical appliances and accessories to contractors, panel builders and factories. Both Hager Malaysia and Maxguard list this branch as a dealer. It’s at 133, Jalan Seroja 39 — call 07-357 3133.

YSE Electric (M) Sdn Bhd — profile

YSE is a wholesaler of electrical materials for contractors and builders, in business since 1988 by its own account. Its website lists cable and wire, cable accessories, cable management and support systems, capacitor banks, direct-on-line starters and earth chambers, and photos show cable coils, PVC and GI conduit, trunking and boxed lighting. Philips lists it as a retailer and CHINT Malaysia as a Johor distributor. It’s at 140, Jalan Seroja 39 — call 07-354 4871 or WhatsApp 016-772 1871.

Chi-Tak Electrical (J.B.) — profile

Chi-Tak’s Johor Bahru shop is the Southern Zone company of the Chi-Tak Electrical group. Its shopfront leans towards lighting, while the group catalogue covers modular protection and distribution boards, moulded-case and air circuit breakers, contactors, switches and sockets, test instruments, trunking and cable, with no public prices. Philips lists it as a retailer; its Hager, Maxguard and Schneider items come from the group’s catalogue rather than from those brands’ dealer lists. It’s at 24 & 26, Jalan Ros Merah 2/9 — call 07-353 8899. Chi-Tak Lighting’s showroom next door is listed under lighting shops below.

Nusajaya Electrical & Industrial (NEI) — profile

NEI combines general electrical supplies with industrial automation. Its signboard lists cable, switches, conduit, trunking and lighting. Its website adds MCBs and MCCBs, capacitor banks, PLCs, HMIs and drives, proximity sensors, relays, timers, temperature controllers and test meters, and names more than 70 brands. Philips lists it as a retailer; the other brands are the shop’s own list. It’s at 90 & 92, Jalan Ros Merah 2/17 — call 07-361 0988 or 016-753 3919.

B & L Electric Sdn Bhd — profile

B & L is a wholesale and retail electrical supplier, operating since 1995 according to its website. It supplies cable, cable support and trunking, lighting, breakers and electrical hardware to construction and industrial customers. Its own photos show Mennekes industrial plugs and sockets, cable glands and lugs, cable rodders and drum jacks, and Kyoritsu clamp meters. Philips lists it as a retailer, and its storefront carries Schneider Electric signs. Its website brand list names 53 brands, including Hager, Siemens, Himel and several cable makers. It’s at 56, Jalan Ros Merah 2/17 — call 07-351 0997 or WhatsApp 016-710 2295.

T.E. Electric Sdn Bhd — profile

T.E. is an electrical and lighting supplier with a three-shop frontage and a catalogue website. The catalogue covers lighting and fans, conduit and cable management, distribution and protection, switches and sockets, wire and cable, tools and testers, and industrial controls. It takes GI trunking, cable tray and ladder orders for projects. Philips lists it as a retailer. Its website shows logos for 63 brands, including Schneider, Hager, ABB and Siemens, under the heading “Authorized brands we supply”; that’s the shop’s own wording, not a list from those brands. It’s at 16 & 18, Jalan Bakawali 48 — call 07-355 9187 or WhatsApp 011-3148 4934.

Each profile has the full schedule.

The published schedules can change, and a shop that supplies a brand isn’t the same as a shop holding a specific part number that day. A quick call before a long drive still saves time.
