How Can I Be Sure Electrical Installation Work Is Safe?
Poor electrical installations can cause serious injury or even death. It’s essential to choose a company that places safety at the top of its priority list. Here are some things to bear in mind.
1. Sockets:
Think about how many you need and where you need them. Too few sockets or sockets in the wrong place means trailing wires or overloading.
2. Covers:
Do you have covers to protect sockets from curious fingers?
3. Earthing:
Is earthing in place so that the circuit breaker can do its job properly?
4. Circuits:
Do you have enough separate circuits so that any faults can be isolated? This will minimise danger and inconvenience.
5. Cables:
Do you have the correct cables and fuse combinations to avoid any disruption and long term harm to the circuit?
Our team will help you with all aspects of your installation – we’ll offer sound advice based on the most up to date guidelines, as well as our extensive knowledge and experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my circuit breakers keep tripping in Newcastle?
The reason your circuit breakers continually trip will be to do with overloading the system, short circuiting or ground faults. The most common issue is overloading, caused by using too many energy-intensive appliances at the same time.
Short circuiting is also common, occurring when a wire separates from its terminal on an electrical device or outlet causing a ‘hot wire’ and neutral wire to connect.
This happens mainly with older or damaged appliances. A ground fault becomes an issue when a ‘hot wire’ and earth wire connect to their conductive housing. Each of these issues should be treated seriously as the circuit breakers are designed to keep you safe.
If there’s an issue that’s not easily rectified, get in touch with Entire Trades in Newcastle. Our residential electricians will sort it out!
What’s considered industrial electrical work in Newcastle?
Industrial electrical work is more complex and often on a bigger scale than residential or commercial projects. For example, an industrial electrician will focus on everything from complete wiring installations to mains upgrades, automation, process control systems, switchboard manufacturing and electric motor repairs.
Safety also becomes an even bigger concern, with working in hazardous areas just part and parcel of the job. For electrical work in processing plants, mining, manufacturing facilities and other industrial scenarios, you’ll need more than just your typical electrician in Newcastle. At Entire Trades, we know our stuff!
When do I need testing and tagging in Newcastle?
Testing and tagging is required for industrial businesses in Newcastle such as mining, processing and manufacturing under legislation. This needs to be undertaken every 3 months because of increased risk of damage to electrical equipment.
For smaller commercial operators, although this might not be required by law, there’s still a requirement to provide a duty of care. If an electrical fault hurts an employee or visitor, this can result in liability which can be avoided through regular test and tags.
For the home, it’s also not required by law but maybe needed for your insurance company to pay up if something were to happen. To remove the thinking from it, get in touch with Entire Trades to set up a schedule.
