Helpful Power Point & Switch Information
Frequently Asked Questions
When should power points or switches be replaced?
Power points and switches should be replaced if they are cracked, loose, discoloured, sparking, or no longer working correctly. Older fittings may also need replacing to meet current safety standards.
​
Can you add power points without major wall damage?
In most homes, additional power points can be installed with minimal disruption. Access, wall type, and existing wiring determine the best approach.
​
Why do my switches or power points feel warm?
Warm switches or outlets can indicate loose connections or overloaded circuits and should be inspected promptly to prevent electrical faults.
​
Are USB power points safe to install?
Yes, when installed correctly by a licensed electrician. Quality USB and USB-C outlets are designed to safely charge devices without adapters.
​
Can switches or power points be relocated?
Yes. Relocating switches or power points is common during renovations or layout changes and can improve usability and safety.
​
Do I need an electrician to replace a switch or power point?

Power Point & Switch Safety Tips
Overloaded outlets increase fire risk
Using double adapters or multiple power boards can overload circuits. Installing additional power points is a safer long-term solution.
​
Outdoor outlets must be correctly rated
External power points and switches must be weatherproof and installed to suit outdoor conditions.
​
Older homes may not meet modern electrical demands
Homes built years ago often lack sufficient outlets for today’s appliances and devices, making upgrades worthwhile.
​
Loose fittings should never be ignored
Movement in switches or power points can damage wiring over time and should be repaired early.
