Call 0418 383 232Safety switches in Red Hill belong on more than the house power circuit. A homestead board may supply a machinery shed, a studio, a pump shed and outdoor entertaining. Irrigation controls and a pump are their own shock risk on a working block. Impulse Electrical installs and tests RCD protection 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 Impulse Electrical installs RCD protection to power, lighting, appliance and outdoor circuits, replacing outdated protection and checking the switchboard layout for compliance.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 Red Hill, homes with children, outdoor entertaining areas, sheds, pools or older wiring 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 on the circuits we protect and label them on the board. A homestead is finished when the devices we fitted actually trip and reset. Sheds and pump circuits are included when they are on the installation we are there to do. You receive a Certificate of Electrical Safety (COES). Call 0418 383 232.
RCD protection goes on power, lighting and the outdoor circuits that leave the house. On an older homestead that usually means the switchboard is opened and the missing devices are fitted, or the board is replaced when there is nowhere to put them. A pump circuit is protected as its own circuit. A cellar door is protected on that venue's board.
Red Hill homesteads often have machinery sheds, studios, pump sheds and outdoor entertaining areas on large blocks. Those circuits need the same shock protection as the house. A cellar door is protected as that premises. We test the device on the circuit it covers, including a pump shed that sits well away from the house board.

Often the house has one device and the sheds are still on an older arrangement. We open the board and the submains rather than assuming the pump shed was included.
Yes when that circuit leaves the house board. Irrigation and pump controls are already part of Red Hill work. We test the device on the circuit it protects.
Then the enclosure is part of the job. The homestead board is replaced when the devices will not fit and test correctly.
No. A cellar door is its own installation. RCDs are fitted and tested on that board.
