Electrical

Power outages are common, especially during stormy weather. On the Sunshine Coast, that’s all the way from November through to February. After a power outage, our electricians may perform various tasks to ensure the safe and efficient restoration of electrical power. Specific actions can vary depending on the cause and extent of the outage, the type of electrical system involved, and the location (residential, commercial, or industrial). Need help with a power outage? Talk to our team:

Here are some examples of tasks we may undertake after a power outage:

1. Assessment and Inspection: Assess the extent of the outage and inspect the electrical systems and equipment to identify any damages or faults that may have caused the outage. Check for signs of electrical damage, burnt wires, blown fuses, or tripped circuit breakers.
2. Repairs and Replacements: Once the issue has been identified, to make necessary repairs or replacements to the damaged electrical components, such as wires, switches, outlets, and circuit breakers. Faulty or damaged equipment may need to be replaced.
3. Resetting Circuit Breakers and Fuses: If the power outage was caused by a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse, our electricians will reset the breakers or replace the fuses to restore power to the affected circuits.
4. Restoring Power Distribution: In larger electrical systems, such as in commercial or industrial settings, our electricians may need to follow specific protocols to restore power in a phased manner to avoid overloading the system.
5. Testing and Verification: After repairs and replacements, our electricians conduct thorough testing to ensure that the electrical systems are functioning correctly and safely. They verify that power is flowing as expected, and all circuits are operating without any issues.
6. Safety Checks: Our electricians prioritize safety and perform safety checks to ensure there are no hidden hazards or potential risks in the electrical system that could lead to future power outages or accidents.
7. Communication: Throughout the process, our team may communicate with the utility company, other electrical contractors, or building owners to coordinate efforts and keep everyone informed about the progress of the restoration.
8. Preventive Measures: Depending on the cause of the outage, our team may suggest and implement preventive measures, such as installing surge protectors, UPS systems, or backup generators, to reduce the risk of future power disruptions.

The Sunshine Coast, and South East QLD are known for powerful storms, especially through summer. A surge suppressor, also known as a surge protector or surge arrester, is a device designed to help protect electrical and electronic equipment from voltage spikes or surges. These surges can occur due to various reasons, including lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or the sudden powering on or off of high-powered devices.

We perform switchboard maintenance & repairs to help keep you switchboard operating optimally. As part of our service, you can also book an annual reminder for RCD testing to help ensure your safety switches are operational.

Switchboard Upgrades

Old switchboards should be replaced with a modern, compliant switchboard solution. In addition to ensuring your home is safe, this is also essential to manage evolving electrical circuits as they change over time. Residential electricity starts with a compliant switchboard – contact our team to discuss your assessment and upgrade today.

The primary function of an RCD (Residual Current Device) is to monitor the flow of electric current in an electrical circuit and quickly disconnect the power if it detects any imbalance between the live and neutral conductors. This imbalance may occur if there is a leakage of current to the ground, such as when a person accidentally comes into contact with an exposed live wire or faulty electrical equipment.

RCDs are essential. In addition to having them installed on your switchboard, they also need to be regularly tested. Our team can assist with both tasks.
