Electrical Safety Inspections – Sydney Electrician You Can Trust
Protect your home, your family, and your future with a licensed safety inspection
Electrical faults are one of the leading causes of house fires in Australia. Most are preventable. Whether you're buying a home, renting one out, or just want peace of mind, 99 Electrical offers detailed electrical safety inspections across Sydney’s North Shore, Northern Beaches, and surrounding suburbs.
Why Book an Electrical Safety Inspection?
You can't always see electrical risks but that doesn’t mean they’re not there.
Our inspections help identify:
Hidden wiring faults or deterioration
Unsafe outlets or switches
Overloaded circuits and outdated fuse boxes
Non-compliant electrical installations
Fire and electrocution risks
DIY electrical work that needs fixing
Safety switches that haven’t been tested in years
If you're experiencing flickering lights, power tripping, or simply haven’t had an inspection in a while, it’s time to book in.
When Should You Book an Inspection?
Before buying a property – avoid costly surprises post-settlement
After renovations or appliance upgrades
If your home is over 20 years old or has never been checked
For rental property compliance (landlords must test smoke alarms and safety switches annually in NSW)
Every 3–5 years for routine home maintenance and safety
