Zak and Ryan did a amazing job. Even with the obstacles of a double story home with a internal switch board they persevered in the heat and got the job done. Thanks guys we realy appreciate your work and polite attitude.

Fault finding is the systematic hunt for what's actually causing a trip, a dead circuit or a shock.

We assess the symptoms, affected circuits, switchboard, connected appliances and any recent electrical work before beginning a methodical diagnosis. The quote covers the agreed testing, fault isolation and safe repair where possible. For common faults, diagnostic testing and repair options, see the full detail on electrical fault finding.
With around 974 residents per square kilometre, Upwey homes have more cable outside than in, and outside is where weather-related faults start. Sitting near 220 metres in Yarra Ranges, Upwey homes see more supply interruptions, and repeated interruptions are hard on appliance control boards.
Being around 33 kilometres from the city, Upwey has newer cable, so faults are usually caused by something added after handover. Upwey sits inside Yarra Ranges, and council approval is not part of this work.
Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully and Upwey are close enough together that we treat them as one run rather than three separate jobs. Upwey is a suburb of about 7 square kilometres in Yarra Ranges, postcode 3158, with 6818 residents recorded in the 2021 census.
Day to day we are across Upwey and the streets either side of it: Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully, Ferny Creek and Lysterfield. Same crew, same rates, same certificate at the end. The run from Boronia to Upwey is about 6 kilometres south-east. That is a normal day for us, not a special trip.

No travel charge applies. At around 6 kilometres south-east of our Boronia base, Upwey is standard territory, and the call-out plus the first half hour is quoted up front.
Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully, Ferny Creek and Lysterfield are all part of the same patch as Upwey. If we are at one, we are minutes from the others.
Upwey sits in Yarra Ranges, postcode 3158. For this kind of work the council is almost never involved. What you do get is a Certificate of Electrical Safety for the electrical work.
Because the leakage is marginal, moisture, a degraded appliance element or damaged cable can leak just enough to trip under certain conditions. Testing under load is how we catch it.
Tell us what is happening, which circuits are affected and when the fault appears. We’ll test the installation methodically, identify the cause and explain the safe repair options. Book a visit or call our Boronia crew to discuss the fault.
