An RCD, or residual current device, is a safety switch that cuts power within milliseconds if it detects current leaking to earth, preventing electric shock. Under WA legislation, homes sold or rented must have at least two RCD switches installed at the switchboard, protecting all power and lighting circuits. Our licensed electricians install RCD switches safely and to WA standards.
RCD installation cost in Perth is usually $200 to $350 per switch. As WA requires a minimum of two, a standard compliance installation typically costs around $400 to $700. Get in touch with our expert team for a quote today.
A whole house surge protector is installed at your main switchboard, shielding your home from voltage spikes caused by lightning strikes and grid faults. Unlike a plug-in power board, a whole home surge protector stops surges at the source, before they reach your wiring, making them highly reliable. Our licensed electricians can install a surge protector and complete your whole house surge protector installation safely and to WA standards.
The cost of a whole house surge protector typically ranges from $300 to $700, supplied and installed, depending on your switchboard, the unit’s protection level, and whether your power supply is single or three phase. For an accurate quote, contact our licensed team today.
