What electrical work in Ocean Grove looks like
Ocean Grove is two towns in one. Streets near the dunes and the main beach are full of 1960s to 1980s beach houses and holiday homes, many with their original switchboards and a few renovations layered on top. Further back, newer estates have modern boards, solar and plenty of high-draw appliances. The electrical problems are different in each, and so is the advice.
Common problems in Ocean Grove
Salt air on outdoor fittings
Fittings within a few streets of the beach corrode faster than anywhere inland. Rusted outdoor lights, weatherproof power points that no longer seal and garage switches that go crunchy are all common here.
Old boards in holiday homes
Houses that sit empty for weeks and then fill with guests, heaters and portable air conditioners often trip. An older board with no safety switch is the usual reason.
New-build loads
Newer homes add EV chargers, induction cooktops and battery systems. The board that was fine on handover can need an upgrade to carry them.

Ocean Grove questions
Do you cover all of Ocean Grove, including Marcus Hill and Connewarre?
Yes. Text your street or suburb and a photo of the problem, and we will tell you straight away if it is a quick visit.
My holiday home keeps tripping when guests arrive. Why?
Usually a heater, kettle or portable air conditioner on a circuit with an ageing safety switch, or damp in an outdoor fitting. We find which one and fix that, rather than just swapping the switch.
Can you do a safety check on a house before we buy in Ocean Grove?
Yes. We check the board, safety switches, smoke alarms and the obvious wiring, and tell you in plain words what needs attention first.
