What we do in Caloundra
In Caloundra’s apartments and townhouses, each unit has its own board while common-area wiring belongs to the body corporate. Access is arranged through owners or managers, and power-off time is limited to the unit itself. Common jobs are LED upgrades, extra power points, smoke alarm upgrades and replacing faulty RCDs.
Caloundra also has its share of beachside homes in salty air. Close to the water, electrical fittings in Caloundra face salt spray and humidity. Older beach houses are also a priority for smoke alarm upgrades to Queensland’s photoelectric, interconnected requirements.
