Electrician - wiring and circuits

$300

Ainslie ACT 2602, Australia

26th Jun 2026

we’re looking for an electrician to inspect a potential electrical issue at our home. We recently had a plug-in double adaptor partially melt/burn while running a panel heater, so we’d like the affected outlet and circuit checked for any damage. Separately, we’ve also had ongoing issues with certain circuits tripping unexpectedly and occasional difficulty running multiple appliances without breakers tripping, so we’d like a broader assessment of whether there are any underlying circuit, load, or wiring issues.

Ainslie ACT 2602, Australia

I need an electrician to run a fibre path/conduit into the house. The house itself is already wired with several Ethernet ports, so I suspect it may require simply wiring something from the existing patch panel on the side of the house via existing wire conduits. I need someone to do the work before the NBN installation that is scheduled on Wednesday.
