Licensed electrician to repair 2 outdoor wall lights
$150
Campbell ACT 2612, Australia
17th Oct 2026
I have two matching outdoor wall lights that require repair. Both lights have developed the same fault: the large metal shade/lamp-holder section has separated from the smaller upper bell attached to the gooseneck arm. The original metal fittings, shades and glass covers are all in good condition and I want to retain the existing lights rather than replace them. From inspection, the issue appears to be with the internal E27 lamp-holder/mounting assembly. The plastic lamp-holder and/or the hardware that mechanically connects it to the mounting bracket inside the upper bell appears to have failed with age. I’m looking for a licensed electrician who can: * Repair 2 identical fittings. * Inspect the existing E27 lamp-holder and internal mounting arrangement. * Replace the lamp-holder and/or threaded nipple, retaining hardware or mounting components as required. * Mechanically secure the large shade back to the upper bell so the fitting is properly supported. * Reconnect/terminate the existing wiring correctly. * Check that the conductors have not been damaged or strained. * Refit the existing glass covers and bulbs. * Ensure the fittings remain suitable/weather-protected for outdoor use. * Test both lights for safe operation once completed. Important: I would strongly prefer to preserve the existing metal shades, gooseneck arms, wall plates and glass, as the lights match the architecture of the house. The failed internal components appear relatively standard, so I expect suitable replacement E27 lamp-holders/mounting hardware can be sourced rather than replacing the entire light fitting. Photos attached show: 1. the failed fittings and exposed mounting hardware; 2. the lamp-holder assembly; 3. an intact matching light showing how the completed fitting should sit. Happy for the electrician to either supply the required parts or advise what needs to be purchased. Please include/indicate parts separately from labour if possible.

Hi, I’m looking for a licensed electrician to help with a few small jobs at my apartment: 1. The light on my ceiling fan is not working. The fan itself works fine. I replaced the globe, but the light still doesn’t turn on, so I’d like you to check the connection and fix it if needed. 2. Replace the globes in two lights in the living room with brighter globes. I already have the globes. 3. Check two other light globes and let me know whether they are energy-efficient/LED. I already have all the replacement globes. Must be a licensed electrician.

I need services of an electrician. I have unexplained consumption of around 15,000–16,000 kWh/year from the grid despite 10 kW solar and a battery. Existing system: 9.99 kWp Trina PV, Sungrow SG-10KTL-MT three-phase inverter and 9.6 kWh Neovolt battery. Household consumption approximately 20–22 MWh/year. I already have two years of 5-minute smart-meter data. Please install circuit-level energy loggers for at least 7 days to identify the source of unusually high electricity consumption with the actual CSV/data supplied to me afterward. Monitoring of: 1. all three incoming phases / total house consumption 2. HOT WATER 3. POOL 1 and POOL 2 4. AIR CON and 3-phase AIR CON 5. hydronic heating electrical supply/pumps, if separately identifiable 6. solar/battery circuit if useful 7. ideally one channel covering the remaining general power load. 8. kWh per circuit, power versus time 9. the raw CSV/exported data This post is for initial consult on phone and then you can tell me the cost of data collection. I have attached photo of switchboard at my home.
