Our Process

What to Expect from Our Electrical Safety Inspection Services in Wigram

A thorough electrical safety inspection requires considerably more than a visual walkthrough — it involves a systematic circuit-by-circuit examination of all wiring, testing of each RCD and safety switch to verify correct trip response times, checking of all outlets and light fittings for correct earthing and insulation integrity, and a full assessment of the switchboard's condition and compliance with current NZ standards. Christchurch Electricians follows a structured inspection protocol that ensures nothing is missed and every finding is accurately recorded in the written report provided at the end of the job.

Visual & Physical Inspection

Christchurch Electricians inspects all visible wiring, outlets, switches, light fittings and the switchboard for signs of damage, deterioration or non-compliance with current NZ electrical standards.

Electrical Testing

Using calibrated test equipment, our licenced electricians test circuits, RCDs, safety switches, smoke alarms and earthing systems to identify any faults or marginal performance that poses a safety risk.

Written Inspection Report

Christchurch Electricians provides a detailed written report outlining all findings, their risk levels and recommended actions so you know exactly what your home needs and in what order of priority.
