Electrical FAQs
Can I do the small electrical jobs in my house myself?
Definitely NO!!
In Queensland it is illegal for anyone but a qualified electrician to do any domestic wiring or house rewiring. Even if the work has been done to standard it will not pass certification which is bad news especially if you need to sell the property. It makes sense for safety to hire a qualified electrician to carry out all your household wiring. You also risk your personal safety and the safety of your family and friends.
What factors do I need to look at when choosing a ceiling fan?
A few factors to consider when choosing a ceiling fan are:
- Where it is to be installed
- The size of the room
- Is there need for a fan that includes a light
- The room decor
- Blade performance needed
- The location of your house
- Is a remote control fan needed
What is Test and Tag?
Test and Tag is a system where our electricians will test all the electrical equipment in a workplace for faults ensuring it is safe to be used by employees. The electrician will then attach a tag to the piece of equipment stating the date it was tested and when the next test is due.
When should I have an electrical safety check?
Mulherin Air Conditioning & Electrical recommend that you should have an electrical inspection carried out if:
- You are purchasing a property that has been occupied
- The property is more than 25 years old
- If it is more than 5 years since one has been done
- If you are concerned about how any of the equipment may have been installed
How does an electrical safety switch save lives?
On a normal power circuit, the current flowing to an appliance returns through the neutral wire. If the circuit is compromised, the electricity can leak to earth through a person in contact with the appliance, causing death or serious injury.
A safety switch detects the loss of power from the circuit, and cuts the supply of electricity in as little as 30 milliseconds – 0.003 seconds. Importantly, this response time is faster than the critical section of a heartbeat, and therefore significantly reduces the risk of death or serious injury
Why should I use a Master Electrician?
A Master Electrician is trained to deliver professional, safe, reliable service at the highest standard. Master Electricians must carry out ongoing training to ensure they continue to be at the forefront of their trade
