Licensed electricians for Cammeray apartments and houses
A board that keeps tripping, a dead power point or a light that won’t switch on needs a licensed electrician in Cammeray. Our electrician Cammeray team answers at any hour, from apartment blocks to freestanding houses.
We agree the price before work starts. Evening and weekend rates differ from daytime rates, so you get the price for your visit first.
What electrical faults call us out in Cammeray?
A switchboard is the panel that splits incoming power into circuits and holds the breakers and safety switches. A safety switch is a device that cuts power when current leaks to earth.
When a safety switch trips again after you reset it, something on that circuit is leaking. Don’t keep resetting it. Tracing the electrical fault to its source comes before we quote the repair.
A board with no safety switch on its lighting and power circuits is worth upgrading. We price switchboard upgrade work as a fixed job. You see the price first.
Warning signs at the board
- A safety switch that keeps tripping after a reset
- Lights that dim when the oven or air conditioner starts
- A board that feels warm or smells of burning
- Crackling or scorch marks at a power point
Cooling, lighting and appliances in a block of flats
An air conditioner in a flat raises two questions: the electrical load and the neighbours. The NSW EPA covers the second, and the table further down lists its times.
NSW Government names external walls and cables among its examples of common property. NSW Government says to check your strata plan and by-laws for what counts as common property in your scheme.
The same page says owners must repair and maintain anything within their property. It lists lights that hang into your property as the owner’s, and lights on common property as the owners corporation’s.

- Look at the street. If other buildings are dark too, the fault is probably outside your home.
- If only your home is dark, check the board for a tripped safety switch or main switch.
- Unplug the appliance that was running when it failed.
- Treat any fallen wire as live.
If Ausgrid supplies your home, report faults and emergencies to Ausgrid on 13 13 88, which it lists as open 24 hours. In a life threatening situation, call triple zero 000.
Ausgrid says to stay at least 8 metres, or 2 car lengths, away from fallen wires or powerlines. It adds that fallen trees and vegetation around damaged equipment can hide electrical hazards. Keep well back.

What certificate follows electrical work in Cammeray?
NSW Government says the person who carries out the electrical test must submit a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work. It’s due no later than seven days after the test.
From 1 July 2026, certificates go through the Building Commission NSW eCert portal, and paper and PDF forms are no longer accepted. If the electrician adds your email address, the system sends you a copy when the certificate is lodged. Keep it with your records.
North Sydney Council says heritage items are individual buildings, structures and places of individual value. A listing covers the entire property. Council’s interactive maps have an LEP 2013 layer for finding listed heritage properties, so check there before you plan external work.
