Fifteen years ago after 26 years in the electrical contracting and service industry, and following the changes in the Electricity Regulations we began the change to specialise in Electrical Safety Engineering and Consultancy work.

This involves inspection and testing of new and existing installation work for connection to supply, or for insurance certification and compliance with the Act when a property changes ownership.
