Electrical Safety Inspection FAQs

Common questions about electrical safety inspections in Melbourne's Western Suburbs and Geelong.

How often should I have an electrical safety inspection?+

For residential properties, we recommend a comprehensive electrical safety inspection every 10 years, or when buying/selling a home. Rental properties in Victoria require inspections every 2 years. Commercial properties typically need annual inspections, though high-risk environments may require more frequent checks. Homes in Melbourne's Western Suburbs built before 1990 should be inspected more frequently due to older wiring systems.

What's included in a safety inspection?+

Our comprehensive inspections cover switchboard condition, safety switch (RCD) testing, circuit breaker functionality, earthing and bonding systems, power point testing, lighting circuit checks, smoke alarm compliance, and identification of any hazards or non-compliant work. You'll receive a detailed inspection report with photos and recommendations.

How long does an electrical safety inspection take?+

A standard residential inspection typically takes 2-3 hours, depending on property size and the age of electrical systems. Larger homes or properties with complex wiring may take longer. Commercial property inspections vary based on building size and complexity. We'll provide an estimated timeframe when booking your inspection.

How much does a safety inspection cost?+

Residential safety inspections typically cost between $250-$450 for standard homes, with larger properties or detailed commercial inspections costing more. The investment is worthwhile considering the safety assurance and compliance certificates provided. We offer transparent upfront pricing with no hidden fees for our Geelong and Melbourne Western Suburbs clients.

Will I receive a compliance certificate?+

Yes! Upon completion of the inspection, you'll receive a comprehensive inspection report detailing findings, along with compliance certificates where applicable. For rental properties, we provide the Certificate of Electrical Safety required by Victorian law. These documents are essential for insurance claims, property sales, and rental compliance.

What are the electrical safety requirements for rental properties?+

Victorian rental properties must have an electrical safety inspection every 2 years, with all safety switches (RCDs) tested and certified. Landlords must provide tenants with a valid Certificate of Electrical Safety. Properties must have safety switches on all circuits, compliant smoke alarms, and all electrical fittings in safe working order. We handle all compliance requirements for rental properties throughout Western Melbourne and Geelong.
