What’s involved
How a Briks electrician job actually runs.
- 01
An A-grade electrician attends, identifies the circuit and load involved, and quotes in writing. For switchboard work, we photograph the existing board so the quote is line-by-line — not estimated off a phone description.
- 02
No-power emergencies (whole-house outage that is not network-side) are dispatched within an hour. We confirm whether it is a Briks-fixable internal fault or a SA Power Networks issue before billing.
- 03
Every notifiable electrical job is lodged with the Office of the Technical Regulator. You get the Certificate of Compliance the same week.
Standards + compliance
The non-negotiables.
The licenses, standards, and paperwork every Briks-coordinated electrical job clears before, during, and after the work.
A-grade SA license
Every Briks electrician holds a current A-grade electrical license from Consumer and Business Services SA. License numbers are verified before onboarding and re-checked annually.
AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules
All work complies with AS/NZS 3000 (the Wiring Rules). We do not cut corners on conduit, depth, or RCD coverage — even on small jobs.
Certificate of Compliance
Every notifiable job is lodged with the SA Office of the Technical Regulator. You receive a copy of the eCoC for your records and your insurer.
Honest carve-out
Call us — or don’t.
Some electrical jobs need a licensed tradie. Others you can knock over on a Saturday with the right tool. Here is the honest line.
Call a electrician for
- Switchboard sparking, buzzing, or warm to touch — turn the main off and call us
- Repeated tripping that resets and trips again
- Burning smell from any outlet, switch, or appliance
- No power to one circuit (oven, hot water, lights) while the rest works
- Anything involving the meter box or main switch — illegal for an unlicensed person
- EV charger install (mandatory licensed work in SA)
- Smoke alarm replacement in a rental — non-negotiable for compliance
Probably DIY
- Resetting a tripped circuit (once — repeat trips need a sparky)
- Replacing a globe in an existing fitting
- Changing 9V smoke alarm batteries (hardwired alarm replacement is licensed work)
- Plugging in a portable appliance and testing it on a known-working outlet
FAQ
Electrical questions, answered.
