Commercial Electricians Sunshine Coast

Your business’s specific needs will determine how often you should schedule electrical maintenance. However, we generally recommend that businesses have an electrician come out at least once a year for a check-up. This allows them to identify any potential problems and make repairs as needed. Having an electrician on-call can also be beneficial in case of an emergency.

For the most common environments, we recommend the following frequencies:

• 3 months: building, construction and demolition – this requires the most frequent testing due to it being considered a harsh environment and therefore an appliance being damaged is more likely compared to other settings.
• 6 months: factories, warehouses and production – this type of an environment isn’t considered as harsh, but because appliances are often used constantly it needs to be tested every 6 months.
• 12 months: an environment where the equipment/supply cord is prone to flexing or open to abuse – this is often referred to as a hostile environment as the appliance can be overused and is therefore exposed to abuse by the user, as well as dust, general deterioration and the weather.
• 5 yearly: an environment where the equipment/supply cord is not prone to flexing or open to abuse – this is commonly referred to as a non-hostile environment – a typical example of this might be a company’s server room.
