Safety switches are missing from many older Moorooduc houses whose boards have not kept up with the block. Power and lighting in the house, and the circuits that leave for a shed, a barn or a pump, should not sit on one old device or on none at all. Impulse Electrical installs RCD protection and tests it, from our Dromana base.

Safety switches help protect people from electric shock by cutting power quickly when a fault is detected. Impulse Electrical installs RCD protection to power, lighting, appliance and outdoor circuits, replacing outdated protection and checking the switchboard layout for compliance. We test trip times, label circuits and provide a Certificate of Electrical Safety after the work is complete. In Moorooduc, older house wiring, sheds, barns and pump circuits should not rely on partial protection from one or two old devices. Impulse Electrical is fully licensed — A Grade A53308 and REC 25266 — with $25M public liability and a Certificate of Electrical Safety supplied on every job.

We test trip times, label the circuits and issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety. If the enclosure has no room for proper protection, the switchboard is upgraded rather than a device squeezed into a fuse board. A pump circuit are included in that test when they are on the property. Call 0418 383 232.

Why choose Impulse Electrical in Moorooduc?

What a safety switch installation in Moorooduc involves

The board layout is read first. Power, lighting and the circuits that leave the house for a shed, a barn or a pump each get protection where the enclosure can take it. If the board is still ceramic fuses with no spare way, the switchboard upgrade comes before another device is forced in.

A house circuit and a farm circuit

A Moorooduc property often has a standard domestic setup and agricultural circuits on the same supply. Partial cover from one device in the house is not protection on the shed, the barn or the irrigation pump. A bore pump, where the block has one, is on that list too. Those circuits are protected with the house.

Safety Switch Installation in Moorooduc — FAQs

Do older Moorooduc homes already have safety switches?

Many do not, or they only cover part of the house. We open the board and test what is actually protected rather than assume.

Can you add one safety switch and leave the fuse board?

Only when the enclosure and the circuits allow proper protection. If there is no spare way, the board is upgraded so power and lighting are both covered.

Does a bore pump need its own protection?

Yes, where the block has one. Pump and irrigation circuits are included with the shed and barn circuits. They are not left on an unprotected way.

What if the house and the shed are on the same board?

Both are tested. A lifestyle block is not finished when only the house circuits trip. The shed, the barn and the pump are part of the same check.
