Weather it be a House, Villa, Town House, Apartment, Granny Flat, Studio, Work Space or Commercial Setting electrical wiring is an important part of the electrical circuit and must be upgraded if no longer to standard. Key features include:

Conductor Material

Most electrical wiring uses copper or aluminum as conductors due to their excellent conductivity. Copper is more common for residential applications.

Wire Thickness

The thickness of the wire, measured in mm (millimeter), determines its capacity to carry electrical current. Thicker wires can handle more current.

Wire Colour

Wires are colour-coded (e.g. black, red, green/yellow) to indicate their function, such as active, neutral, or earth (ground), ensuring safe installation and maintenance

Insulation

Wiring is insulated with materials like PVC or rubber to prevent electrical shocks and short circuits, protecting the conductors.

Operating Temperature

Many types of wiring are designed to be fire-resistant, minimizing the risk of ignition in case of overheating or short circuits.

Compliance

Electrical wiring must meet national electrical standards (e.g. AS3000) to ensure safety and reliability.

These features are crucial for ensuring the safe, efficient, and reliable distribution of electricity in any building. Get in touch for your free safety compliance inspection to see if your wiring is compliant.
