Over time, electrical outlets can become outdated, worn, or damaged, which can pose a safety risk in your home. Signs that it might be time to replace an electrical socket include face plate discoloration or damage, face plates that feel either warm/hot to the touch, or plugs that no longer sit firmly in place. Replacing an electrical socket is a job that should always be carried out by a licensed electrician to ensure it is wired safely and correctly.

FAQS
No, outdoor power points need a weatherproof cover to keep moisture out. A standard indoor one isn't safe to use outside.
A proper power point is the safer option long term, especially if you intend on using power in that area regularly. Power boards are only meant for light, short-term use (under official Australian safety guidelines) and can overheat if something's plugged in constantly.
It mainly depends on what's plugged in. Large appliances that draw lots of power, such an EV charger, should get their own circuit rather than sharing one with your general power points.
Yes, but there are strict rules about how close a power point can go to a shower, bath or sink, and the type of outlet used may need to be different to what you'd use in other rooms, depending on the area.
If a power point has a loose fit when you plug something in, a warm faceplate, or any cracking or discolouration around the socket, it's worth getting checked out by a licensed professional. If you suspect your power point might need replacing, it's best to stop using it until it's been professionally replaced. If ever in doubt, call a licensed electrician.
