Licensed electricians for Sylvania Waters canal homes, pools and pontoons.
Sylvania Waters is a canal estate where almost every home has water frontage, and that brings its own electrical challenges. We're about 15 minutes away over Tom Uglys Bridge.
PrimeTime Electrical & Communications is a licensed NSW electrical contractor (Lic. 486625C) and fully insured. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, and installation work comes with a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW).
Sylvania Waters was developed from the 1960s onwards, and many of the original homes still have switchboards and wiring from that era. Some boards have limited RCD protection, and outdoor circuits added over the years don't always meet current standards. A switchboard upgrade with RCD protection on every circuit is a sensible first step.
Pontoons, boat lifts, jetty lighting, pools and spas are standard here, and every one of them needs weatherproof equipment and properly protected circuits. Electricity and water don't mix, so outdoor outlets and equipment near the canal must be on a safety switch and installed to suit wet locations.
Salt air from the canals and Botany Bay corrodes outdoor fittings, meter boxes and the connections inside them. We replace corroded fittings with marine-grade products and check connections that are prone to failure.
We also fit surge protection and check the main earth, which matter more in wet, salty locations.
