Tekiesha Bell

"We had Jai come out to look at our 2 ducted aircon units that were tripping at the circuit board. Previously we had 2 different companies come out, one suggested to replace the whole unit and the other didn't believe there was an issue with the unit and suggested it was probably an electrical fault that needed an electrician. We were unsure what was right so thought we would give Voltas a try. Jai arrived within about an hour and a half, diagnosed the issues with parts in both units and had them up and running and serviced within a few hours, this also included a run for some spare parts. Outstanding service and knowledge. He gave us a good run down of the problem, some future options and sorted out a couple of other minor issues after discussing them with me. Will definitely use these guys for future electrical and aircon work."

"Jatender just installed a split system in a room for us, he was efficient, thoughtful and did an excellent installation which required a bit of creative thinking. His pricing and speed of installation was far better than other quotes and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. He also gave me some good ideas on how to get more light into the room."

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers Adelaide customers ask us most about electrical repair & fault finding.

What should I do if my safety switch won't reset?

Turn off and unplug all appliances, then try resetting it again. If it still won't reset, there's likely a genuine wiring fault — stop trying and call our Adelaide electricians instead.

How long does it take to find an electrical fault?

Most faults in Adelaide homes are isolated within one to two hours using proper diagnostic testing, though complex or intermittent faults in older wiring can take longer.

Why does my safety switch keep tripping?

Safety switches trip due to overloaded circuits, faulty appliances, or wiring faults. It's a critical safety mechanism — unplug all appliances and reset it once; if it trips again, call us immediately.

Is a flickering light dangerous?

It can be. While it might just be a loose bulb, it can also indicate a loose wiring connection or an overloaded circuit, which are significant fire hazards in any Adelaide property.

How much does fault finding cost?

We offer transparent, upfront pricing across Adelaide. Once we diagnose the issue, we provide a fixed quote for the repair before any work begins — see our guide on what electricians typically charge per hour in Adelaide for a full breakdown of rates, call-out fees, and why a fixed quote beats a bare hourly figure.

Can an electrical fault cause a fire?

Yes, faults like loose connections or overloaded circuits generate heat and are a genuine fire risk, which is why we treat fault finding as urgent rather than routine.

Why did my power go out in just one part of the house?

This usually points to a tripped circuit or a fault on that specific circuit rather than a full outage. We can isolate exactly which circuit and why.

Do you fix faults in old wiring or fuse boxes?

Yes, we regularly diagnose and repair faults in older Adelaide homes with outdated wiring or ceramic fuse boards, and can advise if an upgrade makes more sense.

Can I use my home while you find the fault?

In most cases yes, though we may need to isolate specific circuits briefly during testing. We'll let you know what to expect before starting.
