Safety Switches FAQs

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our electrical services.

  • What is a safety switch?

    A safety switch, also known as a Residual Current Device (RCD), is a device that quickly turns off the electricity if it detects a problem, like a fault in the system or if someone touches live wiring. This helps prevent electric shocks and electrical fires.

  • Why is having a safety switch important?

    Having a safety switch is important because it provides immediate protection against electrical shocks and fires by detecting and stopping electrical faults quickly. It’s a crucial safety feature in any home or business.

  • How does a safety switch differ from a circuit breaker?

    While both safety switches and circuit breakers protect against electrical hazards, a safety switch specifically protects people from electrical shocks by detecting tiny imbalances in the electrical current and immediately shutting off power. Circuit breakers protect the wiring and prevent fires by stopping the flow of electricity in case of an overload.

  • How often should I test my safety switch?

    It’s recommended to test your safety switch every three months. You can do this by pressing the ‘test’ button on the device. If it works correctly, the power will cut off instantly. It’s a quick check to ensure your safety switch is working properly.

  • Can I install a safety switch myself?

    It is strongly recommended that a licensed electrician install your safety switch. Working with electrical systems can be dangerous without the proper knowledge and tools. At H1 Electrical, our licensed professionals ensure that your safety switch is installed correctly and complies with Australian safety standards.
