General questions
A COES is a legal document issued by a licensed electrician that certifies the work they’ve completed complies with Australian safety standards. It’s a mandatory requirement for almost all electrical work, from a new power point to a full house rewire. You should always be provided with a copy of this certificate upon completion of the job, as it’s proof the work is safe and legal.
A tripping circuit breaker is a common issue. It usually indicates an overload on the circuit or a fault with a connected appliance. You can try unplugging all appliances from the circuit and resetting the breaker. If the problem persists, it’s a sign that you need a licensed electrician to diagnose and fix the issue. Contact us.
No. In Australia, it is illegal for unlicensed individuals to perform electrical work. Not only is it a serious safety hazard that could cause electric shock or fire, but it can also void your home insurance. Always hire a licensed professional for any electrical job, no matter how small.
It’s recommended to have a full electrical safety inspection every 5 to 10 years, especially in older homes. Regular inspections can identify potential problems before they become serious safety risks. We provide free safety audits for your peace of mind, submit request for free audit. T&Cs apply; we provide these as often as once annually per household.
