1 Check the condition of the electrical switchboard. Is it damaged and does the internal panel contain asbestos?
Check if switchboard and electrical equipment have no conductor insulation deterioration.

Comments:
Main switchboard is in good condition. Only one safety switch for all power. The meter box is in good condition. No asbestos. The consumers mains cabling has been wired in black only. This is not legal, however it is safe.
Pass

2 Switchboard equipment is correctly labelled.

Comments:
Switchboard is correctly labelled.

3 Inspect the meter box, and check safety switch(es) are installed. Ensure safety switches, circuit breakers, isolators and fuses show no evidence of mechanical damage.

Comments:
Safety switch is functional. No signs of damage.
Pass

4 Is there a Multiple Earthed Neutral (MEN) connection between neutral and earth at the main switchboard?

Comments:
The MEN connection is present and functional. refer Earthing Your Home
Pass

5 Semi-enclosed re-wireable fuses, where fitted, have not deteriorated due to arcing and have no exposed live parts when the fuse carrier is fitted into the fuse base.

Comments:
No re-wireable fuses.
N/A

6 Check air-conditioning systems. Are the indoor / outdoor units clean? Is there any sign of damage or corrosion? Is the ducting, the ceiling registers, return air grill and filter in good condition and clean?

Comments:
Outdoor unit for the upstairs lounge room (southwestern corner) has a noisy fan. The Sharp indoor unit is old, however still functional. The ground floor lounge room Panasonic unit unit is relatively new and functioning correctly. The master bedroom Teco unit has a damaged horizontal vane, however is working correctly. The outdoor unit requires some plants to be removed, and the metal pipe cover requires re-securing to the wall. The masonry anchors have perished in the sun.

9 Check power points, switches and lights to ensure they are undamaged. Socket outlets exhibit no mechanical damage and there is no evidence of overheating. Lamp holders exhibit no evidence of mechanical damage or evidence of undue overheating or arcing

Comments:
Light in garage has no 18w tubes. It is unknown if it is functional. External entry light has a damaged lamp holder, no cover and is coming away from the wall. It is not functional and not safe.

The NBN conduit through garage requires re-fixing to the ceiling. There are no covers on the ground floor lights and only one works. The entry light requires a lamp and is switched on with the external light. The spare room downstairs has a switch on the northern side that does not appear to turn anything on or off.

The laundry power point above the washing machine has a damaged switch and requires replacement.

We test earthing systems by performing a visual check and (depending on the level of test requested), performing an earth loop impedance test which checks the integrity of the cables, and performing a earth test.

Electrical safety switches are for personal / livestock protection only. If the earth resistance is greater than the Australian standard limits, the safety switch will not function correctly.
