Electrical compliance assessments and inspection items in Perth

When people need an assessment

• When buying or selling a property, or after a building inspection report lists electrical items.
• Landlords and property managers checking a rental property.
• After a renovation, or after other people have done electrical work, to make sure it's safe.
• When you're unsure about the condition of older wiring or an old switchboard.

What we look at

We check what can be assessed safely and in plain view, including:

• The switchboard: its condition, labelling and the protection on each circuit, including safety switches.
• Visible wiring and fittings.
• Power points, switches and lights, for damage or signs of overheating.
• Appliance connections.

What happens after the assessment

We explain what we found in plain English. Where it's useful we can provide a written report with photos, so you can see exactly what we saw. If anything needs fixing we can quote to do it, and we can work through a list of items from an inspection report.

A safety note

Don't open a switchboard or work on wiring yourself. If you smell burning, see scorch marks or a hot switch or power point, switch off what you safely can and call us.

What affects the cost

An assessment is a separate job from any repairs it turns up, so we can price them separately. What affects the cost:

• The size of the property and the number of switchboards and circuits.
• Whether you want a written report with photos.
• How much of the installation is accessible to check.
• Any repairs or upgrades the assessment shows are needed.
• A list of inspection-report items to attend to, which we price by item.
