Rookwood
ElectricianEV Chargers, Lighting & Switchboards

Rookwood is unusual among Sydney suburbs. Most of its area is taken up by Rookwood Necropolis, one of the largest cemeteries in the southern hemisphere, opened in the 1860s. The rest is made up of commercial and light industrial land, with very few private homes. As a result, electrical work in Rookwood is mainly for organisations and businesses rather than householders.

Commercial services

• Scheduled maintenance of boards, lighting and safety switches
• Emergency and exit lighting installation and six-monthly testing
• Three-phase power for workshops and plant
• Outdoor and pathway lighting over large grounds
• CCTV and access control for gates and buildings
• Repairs to faulty circuits, fittings and equipment supplies

Large sites, long runs

Grounds that cover many hectares bring their own challenges. Lighting and power for outlying buildings, pumps and gates often sit at the end of long underground cables, some of them decades old. Fault finding on these runs takes patience and the right test equipment, and we approach it methodically to locate the problem without unnecessary digging.

When replacing old lighting across a site, LED fittings with photocells or timers can reduce energy and maintenance costs significantly.

Working respectfully

On sites where services and visitors are present, we schedule noisy or disruptive work around operating hours and keep work areas tidy and secure. More detail on our approach is on the commercial electrical services page.
