Hi, because of how busy the industry is at the moment I need someone to check out this battery system for me as I can’t get my sparky there for another 2-3 days. Job is in Rowville basically need to do the following steps: “For lost communication, please check if the smart meter is powered on, if they are powered on then it needs a site visit. Battery open circuit means the battery has been turned off so need to reboot the system.” It could also be “1. Please check if the battery switch is on; 2. Please check if the battery power line is securely connected; 3. Please check if the battery temperature is too low and if the battery is fully discharged.”

Licensed Electrician needed to install 5 surface sockets

$250

Ringwood VIC, Australia

26th Mar 2026

Hi there, I am currently doing some home renovations and need a licensed electrician to update the connections for 5 existing LED wall lights. Current situation: There are 5 old LED wall lights (70mm cut-out). Their LED drivers are currently hardwired into the mains behind the plasterboard. What I need you to do: • Remove and safely disconnect the 5 old hardwired LED drivers. • Supply and install 5 standard surface sockets (plug bases, e.g., Clipsal 413 or similar) at these existing points. • Push the new sockets back into the wall/ceiling cavity safely. Important details: • No new wiring or cutting new holes is required. The 70mm holes and the wiring are already there. • I will supply and plug in the new downlights myself once the sockets are ready. You only need to supply and install the 5 surface sockets. • You must be a fully Licensed Electrician and be able to provide a Certificate of Electrical Safety (COES) upon completion. Please let me know your availability and your quote for the complete job (including the supply of the 5 sockets). Flexible with dates but prefer to get it done soon. Thanks!
