Electrician Sydney CBD: common questions

Do you cover the Sydney CBD?

Ambient Electrical covers the Sydney CBD (postcode 2000), in the City of Sydney area, from Peter's base in Bronte, about 6 km away, including after-hours emergency callouts. Call Peter on 0415 684 120.

Which electrical services suit Sydney CBD businesses?

The electrical services that suit Sydney CBD businesses best are office and shop fit-outs, test and tag, and commercial electrical work.

How often does equipment in a CBD cafe kitchen need test and tag?

SafeWork NSW's code of practice counts commercial kitchens as a higher-risk environment and says electrical equipment used there should generally be tested at least once every 12 months. The employer is responsible for keeping the equipment safe under the Work Health and Safety Act, and a licensed electrician is a competent person to do the testing.

Do I get a compliance certificate after an office fit-out in the CBD?

Every part of a fit-out that installs, adds or alters electrical equipment needs a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) in NSW. The licensed electrician lodges it through the Building Commission NSW eCert portal within 7 days of finishing and testing the work, and the portal sends the customer a copy. Keep it with the tenancy's records.
