More about electrical work in Carlton

Walk-up flats in Carlton often have original unit boards with fuses and few power points. Upgrading the board and adding outlets reduces reliance on power boards.

Federation homes near the station often have a mix of original and newer wiring, and testing shows which circuits need attention.

Landlords should check smoke alarms and safety switches before each new tenancy.

If you're renovating, upgrade the switchboard first so new work is properly protected.

Homes near the Princes Highway face traffic noise and dust, but the electrical issues are much the same as elsewhere in St George: original fuse boards, too few power points and wiring that's been extended many times.

If you're buying in Carlton, a pre-purchase electrical inspection can identify old wiring, missing safety switches and unsafe DIY work before you settle.

Carlton has a high proportion of older walk-up flats, and their common areas (stairwells, laundries and car parks) are often lit by ageing fittings on old circuits. Owners corporations can ask us to assess common-area lighting and recommend LED replacements, which reduce maintenance and improve safety at night.

In the Federation homes near the station, rooms were originally wired with a single light and perhaps one power point. Adding outlets, dedicated kitchen circuits and safety switches brings these homes up to modern expectations without changing their character.
