What are the signs of faulty wiring?

Warning signs include flickering lights, burning smells, discoloured or warm power points, buzzing sounds, frequently tripping circuit breakers, and switches or outlets that are hot to touch. If you notice any of these, stop using the affected circuit and call a licensed electrician, faulty wiring is a serious fire risk.

Do I need a safety switch, and what does it do?

A safety switch is installed in your electrical switchboard that quickly shuts off the electricity if an electrical fault is detected. This rapid action helps to minimise the risk of electricity-related accidents, injuries and fires. Having a safety switch is a safety measure and compliance requirement in most Australian states for new and existing properties. It is highly recommended to ensure that your property is equipped with a functional safety switch to protect your household and electrical appliances.
