General power

Any electrical circuit, power point or light fitting that needs a professional service. Power issues and outages are investigated and resolved with the utmost haste.

New circuits

Installing, fixing or removing electrical circuits from common property — for faulty circuits, new light fittings, power points or a common exhaust fan.

Common-area lighting

Sensor and security lighting, lighting on seasonal timers, bunker lighting for pathways, garden and outdoor community lighting, and car park lighting.

Fault finding

Professional testing and tracking down of electrical faults across common property and individual units, with a clear explanation of the cause.

Switchboard upgrades

Switchboard upgrades to keep boards safe and compliant with today's standards as the power requirements of a building change over time.

Service FAQs

Questions about body corporate services

Do you work directly with body corporate managers?+
Yes. We are set up to make life easier for body corporate managers and committees by working directly with site contacts, scheduling regular safety compliance, and ensuring all work is completed. With more than 35 years of industry experience, we understand the process of coordinating with everyone involved in a body corporate, so you have less to chase and manage.
What body corporate electrical work does CGE handle?+
Our body corporate services cover general power work, installation and replacement of electrical circuits, common-area and security lighting, fault finding, switchboard upgrades and mains upgrades. We handle the everyday electrical needs of unit blocks and apartment buildings, from a faulty power point through to larger upgrades that keep the building safe and compliant.
Can you schedule regular safety compliance checks?+
Yes. We can automatically schedule regular safety compliance work so it does not get overlooked. By becoming your eyes and ears on site, we proactively identify electrical defects and address them before they become bigger problems. This gives the body corporate peace of mind that compliance is being managed consistently rather than reactively.
Do you handle common-area lighting for apartment buildings?+
Yes. General lighting for a unit block or apartment building is important for visitors, owners and tenants. We work with sensor and security lighting, lighting on seasonal timers, bunker lighting for pathways, garden and outdoor community-area lighting, and garage, driveway and car park lighting. We can recommend practical lighting solutions for your common areas.
Can you upgrade switchboards and mains for older buildings?+
Yes. Older buildings were not designed for the power demands of modern appliances and equipment, which can place stress on the building's consumer mains. We carry out switchboard upgrades to keep boards safe and compliant with current standards, and mains upgrades to increase power capacity. Where appropriate we may also recommend upgrading the consumer submains to individual units.
How do you handle electrical fault finding in strata properties?+
Locating a fault in a strata property can be like finding a needle in a haystack, which is why it needs a professional. Our electricians are experienced in testing and tracking down electrical faults across common property and individual units. We identify the issue, explain what is causing it, and rectify it so the building's electrical systems return to safe, reliable operation.
How does pricing work for body corporate work?+
We discuss the scope of work with your body corporate manager or committee and provide clear quotes for project work, so the body corporate can make informed decisions. For ongoing maintenance and scheduled compliance, we explain how charges will apply. Contact us with details of your building and what you need managed, and we will outline the best approach.
Will you proactively flag electrical defects you notice?+
Yes. Part of the value of having CGE manage your body corporate electrical work is that we act as your eyes and ears on site. While carrying out scheduled work we proactively identify electrical defects and bring them to your attention, so small issues can be addressed before they affect safety or lead to larger, more disruptive repairs.
