When hiring an electrician, always prioritize safety over price, because cheap and dangerous is the worst deal of all. During a recent solar installation, our team at AWE Electrical Services uncovered a newly installed hot water wire from another company that was in a completely prohibited location, routed directly between the roof tiles and a supporting batten. As specified by AS/NZS 3000:2018 (Clause 3.9.4.3.1), this creates an unacceptable risk of abrasive force, potentially leading to damaged insulation, water ingress, and catastrophic fire hazards. Don't compromise your home’s safety; trust our SAA-licensed team for switchboard upgrades, fault finding, and all your professional electrical needs.
