Frequently Asked Questions
Focused on rewiring, emergency faults, fuse board upgrades, certification and commercial electrical work in Dublin.
What are the signs a house may need rewiring?
Repeated tripping, flickering lights, warm sockets, old rewirable fuses, burning smells, very old wiring and low socket counts are common warning signs.
Should I upgrade my fuse board before rewiring?
Not always. A modern board on old unsafe wiring can give false confidence. The wiring should be checked first.
What is an electrical completion certificate?
It confirms relevant electrical work has been completed and tested by a registered contractor to the required standards.
What should I do during an electrical emergency?
If safe, switch off the affected circuit, avoid touching damaged fittings, do not repeatedly reset tripping breakers, and call immediately.
