Electricians in Katoomba: FAQs
Do electricians need a licence in NSW?
Yes. Electrical wiring work is specialist work in NSW, so anyone doing it needs a licence regardless of the job’s value. You can check a licence on the NSW Government Verify licence check.
What if there’s no electrician listed near Katoomba?
Find My Tradie is a new directory, so some areas have few or no listings yet. Results always show the nearest listed electricians first, so try a nearby suburb, and check back as more local businesses join.
What should an electrician give me when the job is done?
For electrical work in NSW, the electrician must give you a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW). They must give it to you within 7 days of finishing the work. Keep it with your home records.
Who connects a new power supply or upgrades my service?
Work connecting to the electricity network (for example a new connection or an upgrade to the service mains) is done by an Accredited Service Provider (ASP Level 2). Ask your electrician whether they are accredited or will arrange one.
