Electrical Faults & Fault-finding around Shell Cove
Shell Cove is mostly newer homes. The wiring is modern, so the common jobs are the extras that weren't in the builder's package: more power points, fans, lighting, data and EV chargers.
Even newer homes get faults: a faulty appliance tripping the safety switch, a loose connection in a fitting, or a circuit overloaded by additions. Jade isolates the cause and fixes it.
Being close to the water, salt air is hard on outdoor fittings, so we recommend marine-grade or sealed (IP-rated) fittings outside and check for corrosion in meter boxes and outdoor points.
What we do
- Safety switch or breaker that keeps tripping
- Partial or full loss of power
- Dead power points and switches
- Flickering or buzzing lights
- Burning smells, warm switches or scorch marks
- Water-damaged wiring after storms or leaks

When to call straight away
Burning smells, smoke, sparking, a hot switchboard, exposed wires or anything that has had water through it. Switch off at the main switch if it is safe to do so, keep clear, and call.
