Safety Switch Installation in Somers from Impulse Electrical Contractors, based nearby in Dromana and servicing the wider Mornington Peninsula. Around YMCA Camp Somers, the Western Port Bay beach and the tea-tree lined streets, fibro and weatherboard holiday houses, bush block homes, permanent residences and accommodation facilities need electrical work that is safe, tidy and suited to local conditions.
Call 0418 383 232Safety switches are missing from many Somers holiday houses whose fibro or weatherboard boards still date from when the family first used the place. Power, lighting and outdoor circuits near the tea trees and the Western Port shoreline should not sit on one old device. 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 Impulse Electrical installs RCD protection to power, lighting, appliance and outdoor circuits, replacing outdated protection and checking the switchboard layout for compliance.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 Somers, older holiday-house wiring and outdoor entertaining areas 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. A holiday property inspection can include the safety switches when that is the check you have asked for. If the enclosure has no room for proper protection, the conversation turns to the switchboard rather than a device squeezed into a fuse board. Call 0418 383 232.
The board layout is read first. Power, lighting, appliance and outdoor circuits 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. Outdoor circuits on a bush block are included in that layout, not left off the test sheet.
Switchboard replacements and safety switches are listed together for Somers because the older holiday houses usually need both. A sea-change renovation that adds a kitchen, a bathroom or an outdoor entertaining area also adds circuits that need protection. A bush-block outdoor circuit is brought onto that protection. It is not left on the original unprotected way.

Many do not. Fibro and weatherboard houses that have stayed in families for generations often still have ceramic fuses. We open the board rather than assume.
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.
Yes. Outdoor circuits are included. Fittings near the shoreline and among the tea trees are also checked for corrosion, and replaced with weatherproof gear where moisture has marked them.
Yes. Holiday property electrical inspections are part of the Somers work. The board and the safety switches can be looked at together when you ask for that.
