Electrical Services for Strata Properties
Managing the electrical infrastructure of a strata property comes with specific challenges — shared systems, compliance obligations, multiple stakeholders, and the need for minimal disruption to residents. Randwick Electrical works with strata managers, building managers, and owners' corporations across Sydney's Eastern Suburbs to keep buildings safe, compliant, and well-maintained.
Our Strata Electrical Services
- Common area lighting — maintenance and upgrades for foyers, hallways, stairwells, car parks, and outdoor areas. LED upgrades can significantly reduce common area electricity costs
- Emergency and exit lighting — installation, 6-monthly inspection, and annual testing as required by AS 2293 and BCA. We provide full compliance reports for your strata records
- Switchboard maintenance — inspection and maintenance of main switchboards and distribution boards. Thermal scanning to identify hot connections before they become failures
- Common area power — garden lighting, intercom power, gate and garage motor circuits, lift supply monitoring, and pool equipment circuits
- EV charger installation — increasingly requested by residents. We design shared EV charging solutions with load management and individual metering
- Safety compliance audits — comprehensive electrical safety audits covering all common area installations, switchboards, and emergency systems
- Reactive maintenance — responsive fault attendance for common area electrical issues. Priority response for safety-related faults
Working with Strata Managers
We understand strata processes — quoting for committee approval, attending AGMs when needed, providing detailed compliance reports, and communicating with building managers. We carry $20M public liability insurance, provide detailed invoicing suitable for strata accounting, and maintain full documentation for all work performed.
Many buildings in the Eastern Suburbs — particularly in Randwick, Coogee, Bondi, and Maroubra — are 20-40 years old with common area electrical systems that haven't been upgraded. An LED lighting upgrade alone can reduce common area electricity costs by 60-80%, often paying for itself within 18 months through levy savings.
