Frequently asked questions
When do I need an Electrical Compliance Certificate?
You'll need an Electrical Compliance Certificate in several situations, including: when selling or leasing a property, after completing electrical renovations or installations, when applying for insurance coverage, to meet workplace safety requirements, and when requested by local councils or regulatory authorities. These certificates verify that your electrical systems meet Australian Standards and are safe to use.
How long does an Electrical Compliance Certificate last?
In New South Wales, Electrical Compliance Certificates generally don't have a formal expiry date. However, they represent the state of your electrical system at the time of inspection. Many insurance companies and property transactions require certificates issued within the last 3-6 months. For commercial properties, more frequent certifications may be required depending on your industry's regulations and insurance requirements.
What is checked during an electrical compliance inspection?
Our comprehensive inspections include: testing of all power points and light fixtures, verification of safety switches and circuit breakers, inspection of switchboards and distribution systems, checking for correct wiring and earthing, testing of smoke alarms and emergency lighting (if applicable), and identification of any potential electrical hazards or non-compliant installations. We also verify that all electrical work meets the current Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000).
What happens if you find electrical issues during the inspection?
If we identify non-compliant issues or safety hazards during our inspection, we'll provide a detailed report outlining all findings. For minor issues, we can often rectify them immediately during the same visit (with your approval). For more significant issues requiring extensive work, we'll provide a comprehensive quote for the necessary repairs. Once all issues are resolved, we'll complete a final inspection and issue your compliance certificate.
Can any electrician issue an Electrical Compliance Certificate?
No, only licensed electrical contractors with the appropriate qualifications can issue valid Electrical Compliance Certificates. All Howitt Powered electricians are fully licensed and authorised to issue compliance certificates that meet regulatory requirements throughout the Northern Beaches and greater Sydney area. We ensure all certifications are properly documented and registered where required.
