Brisbane Electrician

Pacific Electrical: Your Qualified Brisbane and Sunshine Coast Electrician

Are you looking for an electrician for a home or office renovation? How about someone doing a few electrical maintenance jobs or finally tracing the fault with the bathroom light? We are a Brisbane electrician who pride ourselves on work excellence and a solid knowledge of electrical wiring and new technology.

Residential and Commercial Electrical Contractors in Brisbane and Sunshine Coast

Residential and commercial electrical work has become so intertwined that it requires an electrician to have sound experience in both fields. We do new wiring and installations in homes and offices, renovation work and the extension of existing layouts and systems. We also work in the healthcare industry. Some examples of our regular work as a local electrician include:

  • Wiring. Correct wiring is essential, as any negligent mistakes can have catastrophic consequences. We encourage you to replace wiring that’s several decades old as soon as possible. We also recommend that you check and replace any wiring if the current is increased at the switch box, which might happen when you have an AC unit installed for the first time.

  • Fixtures and connectors. We install new fixtures like ceiling fans, chandeliers and light switches. We also replace worn-out fixtures, either individually or as part of a general renovation. We undertake the conversion of lights from incandescent to LED, which is often not as simple as just swapping out the bulbs.

  • Switchboards. The switchboard is the life of the electrical system in the house, workshop and office. An incorrectly wired switchboard can lead to constant outages when appliances are switched on. We understand how electrical power is used in the home and office, so we wire the switchboard to fairly distribute the usage in the wiring layout.

Data Cabling and Smoke Detection as an Electrical Service

Data cabling has become a common aspect of the traditional electrician's job, including installing and repairing phone lines and Ethernet cabling. We also install mandatory smoke detectors in residential properties. Each of these two fields requires a precise working attitude by your electrician in North Brisbane and Sunshine Coast.

  • Data cabling. Wi-Fi may be convenient, but it has numerous limitations. Installing a wired network in the office or home provides much higher data throughput and better security. We assist you with planning the layout, calculating cabling lengths, choosing the placement of access points and doing the actual installation of the cables. We also wire server rooms and data centres, doing both the electrical wiring and the data cabling.

  • Smoke Detectors. Recent legislation mandates the installation of smoke detectors by an electrician in residential properties. The sensors must either be powered from the mains or batteries, with the former requiring the installation of new wiring. The detectors must also be interconnected so that a single smoke detector will activate all the sensors in the house. We are familiar with the legal requirements regarding the placement and density of the detectors, ensuring that you are fully compliant with the new law and that your family remains protected.
