You don’t need electrical wiring drawings to sell a house.
You need a valid COC.

Where things usually go wrong is after solar is added.

Extra DB work, change-over wiring, inverters — all fine if done properly, all a problem if shortcuts were taken.

Most issues only surface when it matters most:
sale, insurance, or final sign-off.

That’s why the focus should be on making the installation inspection-ready, not just “working”.

Worth checking before it becomes urgent.

Most homes aren’t dangerous —
they’re just badly wired.

And bad wiring costs you later:
• Tripping breakers
• Failed COCs
• Insurance refusals
• Solar installs that don’t perform

I specialise in clean, compliant electrical work — not shortcuts.

🔌 What I help with:
• DB board upgrades & fault finding
• Earth leakage & surge protection (SANS 10142 compliant)
• Electrical drawings & as-built plans
• Pre-sale / pre-renovation electrical checks

If you’re:
✔ Renovating
✔ Selling a property
✔ Installing solar
✔ Tired of unexplained trips

Then you need clarity before spending money.

Quick question for homeowners:
Have you ever had a plug that feels warm, lights that flicker, or nuisance tripping when running kettles/heaters?

Most people ignore these because “it only happens sometimes” — but those are often the early signs of electrical issues inside the home.

I’m curious — does anyone else here get nuisance tripping when boiling the kettle or using heaters in winter?

I’ve seen it a lot lately in Benoni and surrounds and I’m trying to see if it’s just load patterns or something else.

📢 HOMEOWNERS:
There are 13 common electrical issues that can void insurance claims, damage appliances, and trip your home into chaos — and most people don’t know they’re causing them.

I put together a quick checklist to help homeowners spot these risks in under 2 minutes.

Comment ‘CHECKLIST’ and I’ll send it.

Well… this is shocking ⚡😂

But here’s the real shock: 8/10 homes I check don’t comply with SANS 10142. Not unsafe — just badly done.

Poor wiring and unbalanced loads kill batteries, inverters and breakers far faster than people realise. Solar isn’t a magic box — it’s an electrical system that must be designed properly.

We don’t just install. We assess, design and optimise for actual usage and SANS compliance.
It’s the difference between:
panels that “work”, and
a system that lasts, saves and doesn’t trip under load

All quotes are site-specific. We only quote after inspecting the property — hardware, load profile and installation points differ from house to house.

If you’re in Benoni & surrounds and want a quick assessment, WhatsApp me and I’ll guide you. If needed, I’ll come out and check it properly.

Most homes aren’t unsafe — they’re just wired badly.
The symptoms show up slowly: flickering lights, nuisance trips, warm breakers and solar behaving strangely.

SANS 10142 requires correct earthing, labeling, breaker coordination and neutral/earth separation. When corners are cut (especially with solar additions) things work… until they don’t — usually during a surge or inverter bypass event.

If you’d like me to check your DB or solar integration, send me a photo via WhatsApp. I’ll tell you if it’s fine or if it needs attention.

Most solar issues aren’t the inverter — they’re the spec.

The wrong battery chemistry + wrong inverter class + bad load mapping = tripping, short battery life, and frustration during loadshedding.

I’ve been fixing a lot of these for homeowners lately (Benoni + East Rand). The installs are usually neat and the hardware is often good — it’s just not matched to the actual load profile of the house.

I’m an Electrician + Draughtsman and focus on solar integration + hardware matching so the system runs the house comfortably when it matters most.

If your system isn’t performing, or you’re planning to install soon, send me a photo of your DB + inverter and describe the issue — I’ll guide you.
