What Is An Electrical Safety Check And Why Do I Need One?
An electrical safety check is the process of making sure electrical circuits and equipment in the home or business are functioning properly and safely. Any irregularities and potential problems are identified, highlighted and reported so that these issues can be rectified immediately.
Just like your car, appliances and even buildings, electrical systems do age and degrade over time with wear and tear. In fact, faulty wiring is one of the leading causes of fires in homes or businesses all over the country. For the safety and wellbeing of your property and its occupants, we highly recommend a well-planned electrical safety check at regular intervals. A scheduled electrical safety inspection not only reduces fire risks but may lead to more efficient use of energy which will indirectly translate to lower power bills.
IMPORTANT! Please Read If You Are A Landlord or a Real Estate Agent
If you are a landlord or an authorised real estate agent, you have a legal obligation to ensure that your home or the property you lease out is safe for your tenants. Property owners are required to get an Electrical Safety Certificate in WA to proof that the property they are renting out (or selling) is safe and compliant with the latest WA Electrical Safety Standards.
When Should I Get A Electrical Safety Check?
If Your Property Is Old
If you have a property that's more than 25 years old, the wiring is probably old and needs to be inspected for signs of wear, tear and compliance.
If Your Lights or Appliances Are Operating Erratically
Do your lights flicker and your appliances work in a weird way? Time for a check.
If You're Selling or Renting Out Your Property
You are intending to sell or rent out your property, then you are legally required to obtain an electrical safety certificate to prove that your property is safe.
If You'd Like To Assess The Condition Of Your Electrical System
