Electrical work in Bowden
There's a nice irony in doing electrical work in Bowden, because for most of a century this is where a lot of Australia's switches and sockets were made. The Clipsal factory site is now the Bowden urban village: apartment buildings, townhouses, Plant 4 and the shops around it. Electrically that means strata common areas with emergency lighting and car park lighting that has to be tested, building distribution boards, and apartment work that has to go through a body corporate.
Across the tracks the older Bowden and Brompton streets are small cottages and semis, many renovated, some not. The renovated ones are where we find the interesting faults: a 2015 kitchen wired into a 1960s board, with the original circuits untouched behind it. A fault-finding visit usually ends with a conversation about the board.
What we're called for most in Bowden
- Strata and common-area work: emergency lighting testing, car park and stairwell lighting, distribution boards.
- Apartment electrical work coordinated with a building manager.
- Cottage renovations and the switchboard upgrades that go with them.
- Fit-outs for the retail and hospitality tenancies around Plant 4.
If you manage a building in Bowden, a maintenance arrangement puts the emergency lighting register, the RCD testing and the fault service under 1 contact. If you own a cottage, start with an inspection.
