Electrical problems we fix in Kotara

Kotara calls have been fans with a mind of their own, downlights with no earth and boards still on fuses.

Ceiling fan and LED downlights in a bedroom

Fan switching itself on and off

A bedroom fan kept turning itself on. We reset the matching settings on its remote and receiver, and replaced a loose, faulty power point while there.

Ceiling fans >

Downlights out, and no earth

Four lounge downlights had failed. When we replaced them, we found the outlets feeding them had no earth connected, and reported it for repair.

Lights and downlights >

Built-in oven and cooktop in a finished kitchen

Broken oven switch, old fuses

At a rental we replaced a broken oven warming-drawer switch and the oven globe. The board still had old fuses and no safety switch, so we flagged an upgrade.

Meter boxes and skylights in Kotara

A defect notice on the meter box

A network defect notice said a meter box would not open. We checked it, found it opened freely, and sent photos to the property manager so the network could re-inspect.

Room for a skylight

A ceiling fan sat where a new skylight needed to go. We moved the fan 300 mm and reconnected its cabling so the skylight could go in.

Electrical work in Kotara: common questions

Why does my ceiling fan turn on by itself?

Often the remote and receiver settings need resetting, or the receiver has failed. At one Kotara home we reset both and it stopped.

Is a fuse the same as a safety switch?

No. A fuse protects the wiring, while a safety switch (RCD) protects people from electric shock. We found several Kotara circuits on fuses alone and recommended an upgrade.

What do I do about a defect notice on my meter box?

Send us the notice. We check the item it names, fix it if it is on your side of the meter, and send photos so the network can re-inspect.
