02 Why a licensed electrician

Electrical work in NSW is licensed work.

Faulty or DIY electrical work can cause electric shock, electrocution and fires. That's why electrical wiring work in NSW must be done by a licensed electrician, and why we treat every job as safety-critical.

  • We isolate and prove circuits dead before we work on them
  • Installed to the Australian wiring rules, AS/NZS 3000
  • Every circuit and safety switch tested before we leave
  • A Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) where the job needs one
  • Twelve years on complex electrical control systems behind our fault finding

03 Electrical emergency?

What to do first.

Normal hours 7 am – 5 pm. After-hours and emergency call-outs available. If you're not sure whether it's safe, keep clear and call.

  1. Life-threatening, fire or someone has had a shock?Call 000 first. Don't touch a person who may still be in contact with electricity. If it's safe to, switch off the power at the switchboard.
  2. Power lines down or a supply fault?Stay at least 8 metres away, treat the lines as live and call Essential Energy, the network operator for this area, on 13 20 80.
  3. A fault inside your home or business?Sparks, a burning smell, a hot or buzzing switchboard, or a safety switch that won't stay on: if it's safe, turn off the main switch and call us on 0413 501 700. After-hours and emergency call-outs available.

05 FAQs

Questions we get asked.

Do I need a licensed electrician for small jobs?
Yes, for anything that involves the wiring. In NSW, electrical wiring work, including adding or moving power points and lights, has to be done by a licensed electrician. Changing a light globe or resetting a safety switch doesn't.
Do you do after-hours and emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our normal hours are 7 am to 5 pm, and after-hours and emergency call-outs are available. Call 0413 501 700. If anyone is in danger, call 000 first.
What paperwork will I get?
For work that needs one, we issue a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW), the NSW record that the work was tested and complies with the wiring rules, and you get a copy.
How much will it cost?
Every job is different, so we give you a clear quote once we know what's involved. Photos of the problem or the space help us quote quickly.
Do you work outside Taree?
Yes: the Manning Valley, Forster and Tuncurry, and Mid North Coast towns including Kempsey and Port Macquarie.
Do you install smoke alarms?
Yes, hard-wired and interconnected smoke alarms. NSW law requires working smoke alarms on every level of a home.
