Electrical Consulting & Compliance Services in Bass Hill
Not every electrical job is a repair. Sometimes what you need is a written opinion — a pre-purchase inspection on a house you are about to buy in Padstow, an exit-and-emergency light test cycle for a commercial tenancy in Chullora, a defect report before signing on a knockdown-rebuild in Revesby, or a scope of works for a fit-out along the Bankstown Central strip.
What electrical consulting & compliance usually looks like around Bass Hill
The regular Bass Hill consulting job is a full rental compliance report pack for landlords in the 2197 area — smoke alarms tested against AS 3786, RCDs on every final subcircuit, working outlets counted and photographed — plus exit and emergency lighting compliance for the Miller Road and Hume Highway business tenants.
Response target: on-site within 90 minutes for emergencies across Bass Hill and surrounds, day or night.
Key Features of Our Electrical Consulting & Compliance in Bass Hill
- Pre-purchase electrical inspections with a written report you can hand to a solicitor or buyer's agent
- RCD and smoke alarm compliance checks against AS 3786 and NSW residential tenancy requirements
- Exit and emergency lighting discharge testing to AS 2293 (6-monthly and annual)
- Small commercial fit-out scoping — what the space actually needs before you engage a builder
- Defect reports and second opinions on quotes you have received from other electricians
- Our Bass Hill electricians do not tender on our own inspection reports — keeps the advice honest
Our Bass Hill electricians do this work at a fixed fee, on a written report you can hand to a buyer's agent, a strata manager, a landlord or a builder. Inspections cover the state of the switchboard, RCD and smoke alarm compliance to AS 3786, visible wiring condition, sub-mains, meter box, and any obvious non-compliant work from previous owner-installed DIY. Commercial testing covers the 6-monthly and annual exit-and-emergency light discharge cycles required under AS 2293, and small commercial scoping covers what a fit-out actually needs (dedicated circuits, three-phase kitchen equipment, exhaust fans, emergency lighting) before you engage a builder.
Our Bass Hill electricians do not tender on our own reports — meaning if we tell you a switchboard needs upgrading in a pre-purchase inspection, we are not the electrician quoting to do the upgrade in the same breath. That keeps the report honest and useful to whoever is paying for it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Electrical Consulting & Compliance in Bass Hill
Is an electrical inspection worth getting before I buy a house in Bankstown, Revesby or Padstow?
Yes for anything built before about 1990, or anything that has clearly had owner-installed DIY (extra GPOs, downlights, air-conditioning) without a corresponding upgrade of the switchboard. The single biggest thing you find at pre-purchase is a switchboard that will need replacing within a year or two, which is a real cost you can factor into your offer. For newer builds (post-2000) with an obviously modern board, the value drops off — a building-and-pest is usually enough.
How often do exit and emergency lights need testing for a commercial tenancy?
Under AS 2293.2, exit signs and emergency lights need a full 90-minute discharge test every 6 months plus visual inspections in between, and full annual documented testing. Most commercial tenancies get pulled up on this at a fire audit. We do the test, log every fitting into a maintenance register you can hand to a building manager or auditor, and quote separately for any fittings that fail the discharge.
What is included in an RCD and smoke alarm compliance check for a rental?
We test every RCD in the switchboard for trip time and trip current against AS/NZS 3760 limits, check that every bedroom and hallway has a working interconnected smoke alarm compliant with AS 3786, check battery-backed alarms are within their 10-year replacement date, and give you a signed report you can hand to a real-estate manager or the landlord.
Can you review a quote I have received from another electrician?
Yes. Second-opinion quote reviews are a real thing we do — usually where a homeowner has been quoted for a full switchboard replacement or a rewire and wants a sanity check. We look at the scope, the pricing structure and whether the recommended work matches what the property actually needs. It is a fixed fee, and the review is honest whether the original quote is fair or overblown.
Do I get a written report or just a verbal opinion?
Written report every time — that is the whole point. A verbal opinion is worth nothing to a solicitor, a strata manager, an insurer or a landlord. Our reports include photos of every issue, a clear list of what is compliant, what is non-compliant and what is worth watching, and a plain-English summary at the top for people who are not electricians.
