Electrical Faults & Fault-finding around Orient Point
Much of the housing in Orient Point was built decades ago. Older homes like these often still have original switchboards, ceramic fuses or only one or two safety switches, and wiring that was never designed for today's appliances.
In older homes, faults often trace back to tired wiring, loose connections or moisture in outdoor points. Jade finds the cause rather than just resetting the safety switch.
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.
