The Importance of Home Safety Checks
When was the last time you had a Home Safety Check performed by professional Master Electricians?
Quite often, homeowners don’t think about power and electricity until something goes wrong. And quite sadly, when something goes wrong, these mishaps can range from minor electric shocks, to power outage or more severe cases where you house may become engulfed in flames within minutes – putting your families lives at risk.
In Australia, more than 300 electrical fires (per state) occur each year and are commonly caused by old wiring that is unable to cope with the demands of modern electrical systems
The statistics are scary. Protect your family home and be on the right side of safety with an Alliance Home Safety Check Report. Our Master Electricians perform a comprehensive safety check, pinpointing worn-out wiring, malfunctioning electrical equipment as well as damaged or incorrectly installed wiring.
It is imperative these faults are found and rectified as they can lead to extreme consequences shall they be left in incorrect functionality. A routine Home Safety Check by a qualified Master Electrician at Alliance Climate Control can prevent these hazardous scenarios from coming to life. This is a crucial inspection, especially for an older building.

What Our Community
Is Saying About Alliance
From initial conversation Aysa came up with a very genius plan for placement installation of the AC. Installation team Gokhan, Louise and Charles was so helpful and made the idea happened
They were so clean, tidy up everything and super knowledgeable. They did a schmick job.
Many thanks guys 🙏🏻
They owned the problem. They are always very polite. The engineers they send out are highly professional, leave no mess, take off their boots and are good at communication with the client.
I've recommended them to many people..
Decided to ask ACC to do some straight electrical - powerpoint installs , sconce replacement.
JJ and Aden did a great job: quick, friendly, informative. Really neat job. Cleaned up after themselves and even took the old sconces for disposal.
Happy with the work.
JJ also noticed some switches were out of code in my switchboard and recommended and completed replacements.
So house electrics are a little safer too.
AIR COND INSTALL Review:
Two teams worked on our place:
Andres , Cristian and Qais replaced our ducted system, and Vy, Luan and Maison installed a separate split system where ducted couldn't reach.
Both teams did an excellent job.
Everyone arrived on time, walked us through what was going to be done and were happy to answer any questions. They were friendly and professional. Completed install on time, showed us how the new system worked and made sure we were happy. Cleaned up afterwards too - as promised.
Ducted team worked for two days in some hot conditions, removed old unit and ducting and disposed off. Hassle free for us. Install of new system, ducting and control system was trouble free for us.
Split team did a great job too - gave advice on best position for indoor and outdoor unit, clean efficient install, tidied up after themselves. Really professional.
Great from start to finish.
Update: the company apologised for not having the correct filters at the time and promptly arranged for the correct units to be installed .. they really do follow up and fix any issue so deserve 5 Stars
We have an inner city terrace, and have over more than a decade got quotes, only to be told that "it is not possible". So, I looked for someone close, who I figured would have experience with our type of dwelling. The quote was very reasonable, the installation went smoothly, and we are very happy.
Thank you to the team who did the work - Shabi, Louis, Peter & JJ.
Also to Will behind the scenes who coordinated the scheduling of this job ( fans added in )
Thanks again

Electrical Safety Compliance
Switchboard Inspections and Safety Switch Testing
Did you know the inspection of main switchboards and frequent testing of communal safety switches is paramount to your home’s safety? Quite often, we find in Strata managed buildings, these are overlooked and forgotten.
Lack of inspection and testing isn’t only a breach of building safety compliance, it can also contribute to major safety hazards that can be avoided if inspected and rectified by a Master Electrician.
With constant upgrades and advancements in the world of electricity, many older buildings are more than likely not up to date with the current Australian Electrical Safety standards. This is due to infrequent Home Safety Checks, therefore missed important upgrades to the electrical components and systems, posing potential household hazards.
Australian Standard (AS 3019 -2007) refers to the periodic verification for electrical services within common areas to be completed. It a strong safety recommendation that all Body Corporates complete switchboard inspections every 2 years as a minimum as it a critical piece of infrastructure for the supply of power to the building.
For buildings with multiple properties, for example, units, safety switches for the communal lights can be found inside the main switchboard. Also located inside here should be safety switches for individual properties.
It is imperative that these safety switches are tested by a licensed Master Electrician to ensure they are tripping within the required time of 300 milliseconds – cutting power to any faulty source and safeguarding you from injury. If a safety switch does not trip within the required time, it is deemed faulty and should be replaced immediately.
Master Electricians are licensed to test Safety Switches in accordance with AS/NZ 3760:2010. This specifies that inspection and testing must be completed every six months (push button) and 2 years (operating time test).
To avoid the risk of non-compliance that could lead to electrical safety hazards, which commonly cause electrical fires and shock, check your inspection records for currency.
If you find these are out of date, get in touch with one of our Alliance Master Electrician’s to bring the safety of your building back up to the required safety standard and protect your family from potential harm.
