Full safety switch protection only became mandatory in 2019 — even homes rewired before that might not be covered. A 20-minute check tells you for certain.
4 in 10 Australian house fires start with an electrical fault. This is what that looks like on your street.
Australian wiring rules didn't always require a safety switch on every circuit — including lighting. That level of coverage only became mandatory nationally under the AS/NZS 3000:2018 standard, enforced from 1 January 2019.
If your home's electrics were last touched before that date — even a full rewire — there's a real chance some circuits still aren't covered. You can't tell by looking. The only way to know is to check.
A safety switch check covers all of this — most jobs done in a single visit, no return trips.
We test every circuit against the current standard, not just the ones that already have protection.
