Cabling

Cabling starts with cable condition, routes and rewiring choices. The existing installation and actual requirement are assessed before repair, alteration or replacement is proposed.

When you may need cabling

Symptoms and situations worth having checked

Need a new route?

Conduit, trunking and concealed paths have different implications.

Old wiring and modern loads?

Condition and protection matter more than age alone.

Renovation exposes alterations?

Open access helps trace and plan circuits.

What the work can include

  • Inspect accessible wiring
  • Assess circuit demand
  • Trace affected sections
  • Plan routes and containment
  • Compare partial and broad rewiring
