Are safety switches mandatory for homes in West Gosford?

Yes, current NSW law requires safety switches, or RCDs, to be installed on all power and lighting circuits. This mandate applies to all residential properties to prevent electrical accidents.

Does the Central Coast Council require inspections for switchboard work?

While the council does not handle domestic switchboard inspections, all electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician. We provide the mandatory compliance certificates for all completed installs.

Can I install a safety switch on an old 1970s switchboard?

Many older boards require an upgrade or modification to fit current RCD hardware. We assess your board upon arrival to determine if a full upgrade or a retrofit is the safest path forward.

How quickly can you attend to a request in my suburb?

We maintain a 60-minute target for urgent calls within our service areas. Our mobile team is regularly dispatched to locations throughout the Central Coast.

Do I need a level 2 electrician for this service?
