Why added loads and altered wiring should be professionally reviewed.
What to review
- Update circuit schedules after wiring changes.
- Review conductor size and protection for new high-load appliances.
- Verify earthing continuity at new outlets.
- Remove temporary joints and extensions left behind after work.
When to stop and call a professional
Stop using equipment or a circuit when there is heat damage, smoke, burning odour, sparking, repeated protective-device operation or electric shock sensation. Do not open energized equipment unless you are qualified and authorized to do so.
Emergency: If there is active fire, smoke, gas leakage or immediate danger, leave the area, warn others and contact the local emergency service. A website checklist is not an emergency response service.
