Belmont faults have hidden behind a roofing screw, a broken earth wire and a fan wired through a wall.

A roofing screw had gone through the lighting cable, with a second fault in the extension. We repaired both and put the lights on new safety switches.
Fault finding >
The metal light's earth wire was broken, which is likely why the safety switch never tripped. We fitted a new double-insulated light and flagged the earth fault.
Outdoor lighting >
A ceiling fan had been hardwired through a wall. We fitted a new fan on a proper plug, and flagged the circuits with no safety switch.
Exhaust fans >Tell us what is going on. We ring you back, usually the same day.
We connected an existing shed feed, then fitted power points, an LED batten, an office fan with a light and a sensor light outside.
Power points >
Only one side of a laundry double power point worked. We replaced it, and flagged that most of the circuits had no safety switch.
Switchboard upgrades >
The slide-out rangehood in a Belmont rental had died. We removed it, fitted a new one and left spare filters for the tenant.
Rental appliances >
Upstairs and downstairs shared one power circuit. We split them onto separate circuits and replaced worn power points in the entry, garage and storage.
Power points >
After an electrical storm, fans, a TV and other items had stopped working. We isolated and tested each one and listed what could not be repaired.
Fault finding >
Lighting faults, wet sensor lights and shed power.

The earth wire may be broken. At one Belmont North home the wet metal light's earth was open circuit, which is likely why it never tripped. Leave it off and call us.
