FAQ
What are the most common electrical problems in homes?
Some of the most common electrical issues in homes include flickering lights, tripping circuit breakers, frequently blown fuses, warm or discoloured power points, and outlets that no longer hold plugs securely. Other frequent concerns are overloaded circuits caused by too many appliances running at once, outdated wiring that no longer meets safety standards, and switchboards without safety switches (RCDs). While some of these problems may seem minor, they can indicate underlying faults that could lead to fire hazards or electrical shocks if left unchecked. Regular maintenance and inspections by a licensed electrician are recommended to identify and resolve these issues early.
How often should a home’s electrical system be inspected?
Most experts recommend that a home’s electrical system be inspected every 2–3 years, or sooner if the property is older, undergoing renovations, or showing signs of electrical issues such as frequent tripping circuits or unusual burning smells near outlets. In Victoria, rental properties must legally undergo electrical safety checks every two years, but even owner-occupied homes benefit from routine assessments. These inspections typically involve checking switchboards, safety switches, smoke alarms, wiring, earthing systems and visible fittings. Regular inspections help ensure compliance with safety standards, reduce the risk of electrical fires, and identify areas where efficiency can be improved, such as outdated lighting or overworked circuits.
Why is it important to use a licensed electrician?
Using a licensed electrician is essential because electrical work is complex, potentially dangerous, and heavily regulated in Australia. Licensed electricians have completed the necessary training, are familiar with safety codes, and hold the certifications required to work legally. Attempting DIY electrical repairs without the proper qualifications can lead to serious risks, including electric shock, fire, or costly damage to appliances and wiring. In addition, unlicensed work may void insurance policies and fail to meet legal requirements, particularly for rental properties. A licensed electrician not only ensures the job is safe and compliant but also provides documentation that can be used for insurance and property records.
