Questions
Can I perform DIY electrical work at home?
No. NSW law requires licensed electricians for residential wiring to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
How often should electrical safety inspections occur?
Inspections recommended every 5 years or when purchasing a property over 25 years old.
Why is surge protection important?
Surge protectors safeguard appliances from voltage spikes, preventing damage from events like lightning strikes.
Do I need safety switches?
Safety switches are legally required for new homes and recommended for older properties to prevent electric shocks.
What's the difference between electricians and contractors?
Licensed electricians perform work, while contractors are companies with business licenses and insurance to manage electrical projects.
