Electrical Health Check Townsville

It’s crucial to know the electrical safety of a property you are purchasing

If you are on the cusp of buying a home it is important to know if the property you are purchasing is electrically safe and if there are any upgrades required to its electrical system. Mountain Man Electrical can help you undertake your due diligence with an electrical health check, which can be highly valuable in your negotiations. An electrical health check will provide you with a written and photographic report of the age, condition and safety of the current electrical system and make recommendations.

Why are Electrical Health Checks important?

As your trusted local electrician, we understand the importance of Electrical Health Checks for your safety and peace of mind. In addition to ensuring your personal safety, Electrical Health Checks are crucial for ensuring your electrical equipment abides by the Electrical Safety Act 2002 (QLD). This compliance is essential for homeowners and business owners to avoid costly penalties and fines. Non-compliance can affect your insurance coverage, the sale of a house and may leave you exposed in the event of an incident. It is important for potential home buyers to understand the need for a full or partial rewire after purchase to ensure their home is safe, efficient and up to regulation.

These checks also help to identify potential hazards in your electrical system that could pose a risk to your safety or damage your property. From damaged wiring to faulty equipment or overloaded circuits, our licensed electricians will detect these issues early on so you can book the necessary repairs or upgrades to prevent accidents from occurring. An electrical health check helps identify hidden faults, ageing components, or potential hazards across your home. It’s a practical step to ensure your systems remain safe, compliant, and operating efficiently — saving you money on repairs and your electricity bill in the long run.

Whether you’re maintaining your current property or preparing for future upgrades, our team can diagnose issues early and provide clear next steps, helping you stay ahead of unexpected electrical repairs.

Electrical Health Checks in older homes

If your house is more than 30 years old or you are about to purchase a house more than 30 years old we strongly recommend an Electrical Health Check as a myriad of issues could be hiding in the walls and ceiling.

An electrical health check can save your home from any potential electrical fire hazards such as homes that have exposed wiring, wiring chewed by rats, or deteriorated cables such as the vulcanised Indian rubber, now understood to be extremely dangerous. In many older homes our licensed electricians have alerted home-owners and potential home-owners to potential electrocution hazards such as cracked switches and outlets, homes that do not have the recommended safety circuits or life-saving technology such as residual current devices (RCDs) which shut down the power within milliseconds when a fault is detected. We will identify smoke alarms that are not working or are out of date, the presence of halogen lighting and much more.

Our Process

It’s important to remember that only a person with an appropriate electrical work license should conduct an Electrical Health Check. Our licensed electricians hold Queensland Electrical Contractor License No. 88209 and will perform the following to ensure your electrical equipment is safe for use:

1. Inspection and testing

Our licensed electrician will thoroughly inspect your electrical equipment, including power points, light switches, and light fittings. Using specialized tools, they will also test your electrical system's power, voltage, and current.

3. Repair or replace

If any electrical equipment is found to be faulty during the inspection, our electrician will compile a quote for repair or replace it as required.

2. Safety switches

Our electrician will test and inspect all safety switches in your electrical system in accordance with AS/NZS 3017, ensuring Residual Current Devices (RCDs) trip correctly and provide effective protection.

Written and photographic report

After the inspection and testing, we will provide you with a detailed report that outlines the condition of your electrical equipment, any faults that were found, and any recommended repairs or upgrades.
