On the job: preparing a ceiling for a projector
Peter's own video from a job in October 2025. In his words: reinforcement for the projector mount; the cables, two Cat6 and an HDMI, plus 2.5 mm TPS for a power point; and opening up the ceiling space to bring the cables in.

In short
These 17 photos are from Ambient Electrical jobs done by Peter Stafford: switchboard upgrades and metering, feature lighting and chandeliers, pool and garden lighting, outdoor power and security cameras, and fault finding. Every job is done by Peter himself, with no sub-contractors. The photos show the work, not a particular suburb.
The problem: The three-phase isolator on a sub-board upstairs, which controls the oven and power circuits, was not working properly.
What Peter did:
Tested the 32 A three-phase main switch in the main switch room, on its supply side and its load side
Supply side: 415 volts between every pair of phases, as it should be
Load side: 415 volts between two of the phases, but 240 volts across the other two pairs, where 415 should be
Found no continuity through the main switch on the third phase (the blue cable)
The result: The fault was in the main switch downstairs, not the sub-board upstairs. The fix is to replace it with a new 32 A three-phase main switch from a reputable brand.
My recommendation, folks, is to stay with the reputable brands.
