Questions Answered.
When do I need an electrical safety inspection?
Common triggers include: selling a property, buying a property, converting a rental to a long-term lease, a home that hasn't had electrical work in over 10 years, or following storm or surge damage. It's also worth doing as a standalone check on any home built before 1990.
What type of smoke alarms are required in Victoria?
Photoelectric smoke alarms hardwired to mains power with battery backup. Ionisation-type alarms and battery-only alarms do not meet current Victorian requirements for new installations. All alarms must also be interconnected so every unit sounds when one detects smoke.
How often do RCDs need to be tested?
Australian Standards recommend RCDs be tested every 12 months using a timed trip test. For rental properties, Victorian legislation requires regular testing and documentation. A push-button test alone is not sufficient — a proper timed test with recorded results is required.
Can hazards found during an inspection be fixed the same day?
In most cases, yes. Kenny brings the tools and parts to handle common remediations — exposed junctions, disconnected earth bonds, incorrectly wired power points — on the same visit. If a larger issue is found, you'll get a written quote on the spot with no obligation to proceed.
