Did you know there are common electrical safety issues?
These are:
- work not being properly tested after installation or repairs are done
- unsafe wiring not being protected or secured properly (electric shock risk)
- loose terminals on switchboards and fittings (fire risk)
- overloaded circuits (fire risk)
- metal fittings not earthed and bonded correctly (electric shock risk)
