Why Are Electrical Safety Inspections Important?

Electrical faults often develop silently. A thorough inspection carried out by one of our qualified electrical inspectors to identify potential issues early, helping reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, equipment damage, and costly emergency repairs.

Key benefits include:

• Early identification of hidden electrical risks
• Improved electrical safety for occupants
• Compliance with current NSW regulations
• Peace of mind for homeowners and landlords

Common Electrical Hazards We Find

During an electrical safety test, our electricians commonly identify hazards such as:

• Faulty or outdated switchboards
• Dangerous or damaged cabling (including old cotton cloth wiring)
• Poorly installed or overheating downlights
• Vermin-damaged wiring
• Damaged fuses and circuit breakers
• Cracked or loose power points
• Faulty earthing
• Damaged outdoor electrical equipment
• Exhaust fan dust and grease build-up

Left unchecked, these hazards can significantly increase the risk of fire or electric shock. If you notice any of these signs call Done Right Electrical at 0485 900 323

When Is It Important to Do an Electrical Safety Inspection?

Electrical safety inspections are strongly recommended:

• When buying or selling a property
• Before leasing a rental property (rental safety check)
• If your home is more than 10–20 years old
• After renovations or upgrades
• If you experience frequent electrical issues
• As part of ongoing property maintenance

What Happens If My Electrical System Fails?

Electrical system failures can result in power loss, damaged appliances, fire risk, or serious injury. In rental properties, electrical faults are considered urgent repairs and must be addressed immediately by a licensed electrician.

Residential Electrical Safety Inspections 

For landlords and property managers, electrical safety is not optional, it’s a legal responsibility. (Section 63, Residential Tenancies Act 2010)  Before a tenant moves in, the property must be inspected and documented to confirm:

• No visible electrical hazards (damaged outlets, loose wiring, sparking power points)
• Smoke alarms are installed and tested as required by legislation
• Safety switches are installed and working (this can only be confirmed through testing)

Any electrical fault before or during a tenancy is classed as an urgent repair and must be rectified promptly. Our gas and electrical safety checks help landlords meet their obligations while protecting tenants and reducing liability.

Commercial Electrical Safety Inspections 

Commercial properties have higher electrical demands and stricter compliance requirements, making regular commercial electrical safety inspections essential. At Done Right Electrical, our licensed electricians carry out thorough inspections to ensure all electrical systems meet current safety standards and compliance requirements.. 

Our commercial inspections assess switchboards, wiring, power outlets, lighting, safety switches, and electrical equipment to ensure everything is operating safely and in line with current NSW regulations. By identifying potential hazards early, we help minimise downtime, reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, and support a safe environment for staff, customers, and tenants. With clear reporting and practical recommendations, our commercial electrical safety inspections give business owners and property managers confidence that their electrical systems are compliant, reliable, and professionally maintained.

DIY Electrical Work: A Serious Safety Risk

In the age of online tutorials, it’s easy to believe electrical work is a DIY task, but unlicensed electrical work is extremely dangerous and illegal in NSW. Incorrect repairs or installations can lead to electric shock, fires, and insurance issues.

Electrical systems should only ever be inspected and worked on by licensed safety electricians with the correct training and experience.
