Electrical installations(elektro instalace) can
look mysterious. There are some basic requirements for installing electricity
and important information you need to know.. Quality of workmanship, standards
of performance, and possible hazards are some of the more important issues in
electrical(elektroservis)
installation, and it's worth familiarizing yourself with the basic
requirements.
The
basics:
New technology requires a very wide range of new repair of electronics (opravy elektroniky) installations. These are very different from the old systems, particularly in communications, media systems and IT areas.

All electrical installations are
regulated. Installation service prague(servis Praha) of
electrical fittings must:
- Comply with Australian Standards
- Comply with safety best practice requirements
- Have certified safety compliant components under state certification regulations or Australian Standard compliance marks, including "Regulatory compliant", or Electrical Safety Type Test marks
- Be conducted by appropriately licensed contractors
These are the fundamental quality
checks and safeguards on all electrical installations. The Australian Standards
safety marks are also particularly good indicators of age of components.
Issues,
problems, and hazards
Everybody's seen old or
doubtful-looking electrical installations. The rule of thumb is that the worse
it looks, the less likely an installation has been professionally done or
serviced. These tacky-looking messes are real hazards. Electrical wiring and
connections need to be done properly.
Electrical "handymen" jury
rig installations, but professionals don't. It's too risky. Any installation
which looks anything less than professionally connected needs work. If anything
looks at all wrong or out of place, be suspicious rather than sorry.
Important: Make sure you have a good
system for dealing with electrical faults and related issues.
Things to
look out for:
- Smells of ozone or burnt plastic: Wiring issues.
- Scorch marks: The electrical board may have taken damage and be unsafe, even if there wasn't a fire.
- Any overheating appliance: Either the appliance is unsafe or there's a power issue.
- Odd noises or behavior in machinery: Electrical installations can be damaged by operating machinery which can create hazards by damaging wiring. The system should be taken offline instantly and checked ASAP.
- Water around electrical fittings: Very serious problem, requiring immediate service. Water can do tremendous damage very quickly near live power sources. Water damaged areas around electrical fittings should be repaired, because they're no longer water resistant.
- Anything flickering: It's normally the appliance, but if not it's the power. Again, be suspicious.
How to
check out your electrical installation for quality
It's a good idea to get your
electrical contractor to do a general system audit regularly. This is also good
practice administratively, as well as for quality checking.
Note: Testing of electrical systems
is conducted during the maintenance program, and is efficient insofar as safety
checking and operational status are involved. Properly conducted maintenance
will find and fix faults, but it's not an audit process.
An audit is a further stage of
quality control, and can be used as a planning tool for future installation
needs. You'll also find that these checks provide good information for business
budgeting and forward costing of new electrical wiring installations and
related plant and equipment requirements.
