Electrical work on the big Bolwarra blocks

Bolwarra Heights is big blocks, long driveways and gardens a long way from the board. Down on the flats at Bolwarra and Largs the houses are much older, some of them among the oldest in the district. The two ends of the suburb bring different faults.

Half the garden in the dark

At a Bolwarra Heights home we worked out which garden lights had gone out and how they were switched, ran new conduit between the driver and the stair light, and found the LED driver had failed. A new driver brought every missing light back on.

Electrician testing circuits inside an open switchboard

Blamed on the wiring

A circuit feeding an air conditioner kept dropping out. We insulation tested and point to point tested it at the board: the wiring was sound, and the fault was inside the unit. We do the electrical side and say so plainly.

Fault finding >

Weatherproof outdoor power points installed on a wall

The shed is a long way from the board

Sheds, pumps and pool gear on a block that size sit a long way from the switchboard. Distance decides the cable size, and anything down near the river wants its own circuit, weatherproof outlets and switchgear you can still get at when the ground is wet.

Older homes at Largs and on the flats

Light fittings with nothing earthing them

Houses this old often have metal light fittings with nothing earthing them, and cable joined in the roof space by whoever came last. On the river flats the damp gets into those joins as well. We test what is there before we add anything to it.

Safety inspections >

Lighting a sloping block

Stair and path lighting on a slope needs the conduit in the right place and drivers you can still reach in five years. We plan for the next repair, not just this one.

LED upgrades >

Bolwarra questions

Do you cover Bolwarra Heights and Largs as well as Bolwarra?

Yes. All three are one run for us and they are quoted the same way, with no extra travel charge inside our service area.

Why have my garden lights stopped working?

Usually a failed LED driver or water in a joint. At a Bolwarra Heights home a new driver and a new length of conduit brought every missing light back on.

My air conditioner keeps cutting out. Can an electrician help?

We can test the circuit that feeds it. At one Bolwarra Heights home the circuit tested clear and the fault was inside the unit, which is work for an air conditioning technician rather than an electrician.

Does distance matter when wiring a shed or a pump?

It matters a lot. On blocks that size the cable has to be sized for the length of the run, not just the appliance, so we plan the run first and weatherproof everything that sits outside.
