What does a residential electrician do?
A residential electrician handles all electrical work in and around the home. This includes installing lighting, power points, ceiling fans, smoke alarms, safety switches, switchboards, data cabling and more. They also diagnose and fix faults, replace outdated wiring and ensure your home meets current safety regulations. Whether you’re building, renovating or upgrading your home, a licensed residential electrician makes sure all electrical work is safe, compliant and suited to your lifestyle.
Do I need an electrician to install a ceiling fan or power point?
Yes. Any installation that involves electrical wiring must be carried out by a licensed electrician. This includes ceiling fans, new power points, light fittings, and anything else that connects to your home's electrical system. DIY electrical work can be dangerous and is illegal in most Australian states. A qualified electrician ensures everything is safely installed, meets Australian standards and won’t cause issues down the track.
How often should I upgrade my switchboard?
Switchboards typically last 20–30 years, but you may need an upgrade sooner if your home has old ceramic fuses, frequent tripping, flickering lights or not enough circuit capacity for modern appliances. Homes with solar, air conditioning, electric vehicles or new extensions often need more advanced switchboards. An electrician can assess your current setup and recommend whether an upgrade is necessary for safety and performance.
