If you have an electrical emergency, or any other problem that requires an expert electrician, we can help. In addition to our main services, we also provide assistance with the following:
Electric Faults
A fault in the device, or its power supply cable, can result in a serious risk to people who use or are around the device. This can be caused by factors like worn power cabling or short circuits, or accidentally by people spilling liquids on devices, or damaging power cords.
Dangers of Electric Faults
Electrical faults can pose a variety of risks when they occur. These include the risk of damage to other equipment, and even fire or electric shock, both of which can be dangerous, and even potentially lethal. If the fault is not quickly repaired or neutralised, damage can also be caused to mains cabling in the walls or under the floor, leading to substantial repair requirements and costs.
Prevent The Risks Of Electrical Faults
If you experience unexpected failure of electrical devices, damage to power cabling, or notice unusual heat build-up in electrical devices or installations, don’t delay, but contact us immediately for an expert electrician to assess the fault and make the necessary repairs.
Electrical Safety
Certificate of Compliance
A COC is a document verifying that electrical installations such as the plugs, lights, DB board, geyser, and wiring in a home or business comply with the legislated requirements as detailed in the Occupational Health and Safety Act. No person may market, sell, let, or supply an electrical installation that is unsafe. The seller of a property is therefore obligated to obtain a COC before transfer of the property from a legitimate contractible company which complies with all the criteria as stipulated by the authorities, and conforms to the latest Code of Practice.
