About safety switches
A safety switch (RCD) cuts power in milliseconds when current leaks to earth, which is what prevents fatal shocks. State rules differ but new builds and most rentals must have RCD protection on all circuits, and older homes frequently have it on power circuits only, not lights. Adding RCDs to an existing board is a small job when the board is modern and part of a bigger upgrade when it is not.
Getting quotes in Curramore
When you enquire about safety switches, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
If the timing for safety switches is flexible, include that in the Curramore request and ask whether it changes availability or price. The provider remains responsible for confirming both.
Quick answers
Can I do any electrical work myself?+
Almost none. In Australia it is illegal to do your own fixed wiring, including replacing a light switch or power point. You can change a light bulb or plug in appliances, and that is about it. Unlicensed work risks fines, fire and voided insurance.
How do I know an electrician is licensed?+
Ask for their licence number and check it on your state's licensing register (for example, in South Australia use the SA Government trade licence search at sa.gov.au). Legitimate sparkies expect to be asked and will provide a Certificate of Compliance for notifiable work.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade?+
If your board still has ceramic fuses, has no safety switches (RCDs), or trips constantly when you run several appliances, it is due. Upgrades typically cost $800 to $2,000 depending on the board and wiring condition.
