Chippendale
Electrician Switchboard Upgrades & Fault Finding

Need an electrician in Chippendale? Blue Link handles lighting, switchboards, fault finding and emergency calls. Inner West is our home area; Chippendale is part of our Sydney-wide service area. Chippendale has tight rows of terraces, converted warehouses and the Central Park towers. It's close to Central and Redfern stations. Day-to-day shopping is at Spice Alley and Central Park. Nearby you'll find Central Park and the White Rabbit Gallery. Broadway is among the busiest streets.

The switchboard comes first

Terrace switchboards around Chippendale tend to sit in a cramped meter box by the front door, and many still carry the fuse holders fitted decades ago. Boards made before 1987 can contain asbestos, so they shouldn't be drilled or cut. Every new circuit is tested for insulation resistance and RCD trip time, and the paperwork is lodged with NSW Fair Trading.

Beyond the switchboard

Three-phase power, high-bay LED lighting and data cabling are the usual requests in industrial spaces.

Many terraces have lighting circuits with no earth, which matters when you swap old fittings for metal LED ones.

Data and TV points in apartments are often in the wrong room for how people live now.
