Common Questions
We carry out a visual inspection and electrical testing of the wiring, switchboard, circuit protection, earthing and RCD operation using Megger and Fluke equipment. You receive a written report detailing the findings, test results, prioritised recommendations and photographs, so you have a clear picture of the property's electrical condition rather than a verbal once-over.
The common times are when buying or selling a property, taking on a rental as a landlord, or insuring an older home. Pre-purchase inspections are especially worthwhile on older Dunedin and Otago houses, where hidden wiring faults can be costly. Many insurers also ask for a current electrical safety report to keep your cover valid.
A detailed written report covering the condition of the installation, test results, any faults found, prioritised recommendations and photographic evidence. For rentals and insurance we can provide the relevant safety certificates. The report gives you documentation you can act on, negotiate with, or hand to your insurer.
As a general guide, an older home benefits from an electrical check every ten years, and sooner if you notice warning signs like tripping breakers or flickering lights. Rentals have their own ongoing safety obligations under tenancy law. If you have just bought an older Otago property, an inspection early on is a sensible baseline.
Yes. If the report finds faults or work that needs doing, you have documented evidence and cost estimates to take back into the price discussion. Knowing exactly what you are buying before you commit puts you in a far stronger position than discovering problems after settlement.
