Bushfire Insurance Work

Electrical Work for Retail Premises

uring the 2019-2020 Bushfires, Baycoast electrical and control solutions did some bushfire electrical work for retail premises. We did electrical restoration work on a block of 4 shops. Two of the shops burned down in the fires at Batemans Bay. As the meter box was damaged, we had to repair it as well as repair the overhead wires. This required the installation of new overhead lines, which meant we needed to bring in our machinery and gear to climb the pole.

Electrical work in retail premises typically involves the installation, maintenance, and repair of electrical systems and equipment in stores, shopping centers, and other retail spaces. This can include tasks such as:

• Wiring and electrical panel upgrades to ensure the safety and reliability of the electrical system
• Installation of lighting fixtures, including energy-efficient LED lighting
• Installation of electrical outlets and switches for equipment and displays
• Installation of security and fire alarm systems
• Installation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems
• Installation and maintenance of electrical equipment, such as refrigerators, freezers, and point-of-sale (POS) systems
• Repairs and maintenance of electrical systems, including diagnosing and fixing electrical problems

It’s important for electrical work in retail spaces to be performed by a licensed and experienced electrician to ensure the safety of employees, customers, and the public. It is crucial to comply with local building codes and regulations. An electrician who is not licensed or lacks experience may not have the knowledge or skills necessary to properly install, repair, or maintain electrical systems, which can lead to potential hazards such as electrical fires or shocks.
