Frequently asked questions

The RCD should be tested every month by the property owner or occupant, by pressing the test button on the device itself. If pressing the button does not immediately cut the power, the RCD is not working correctly and you should call a licensed electrical installer right away — do not postpone this, since the RCD is your main protection against electric shock.

A re-inspection is required after every modification to a property's electrical installation — for example adding new circuits, replacing the distribution board, or increasing the connected power. The re-inspection includes measurements with certified instruments and results in an inspection protocol and an Electrician's Declaration of Compliance (Y.D.E.), which is needed both for your safety and for any dealings with the power provider.

Yes. We recommend that all our customers have the earthing checked every three to four years. Earthing materials (electrodes, conductors) sit in the ground and corrode over time, so an earthing system that worked well when installed can lose effectiveness later. The check is carried out with certified earth-resistance testing instruments.

The Electrician's Declaration of Compliance (Y.D.E.), often called an "electrician's certificate", is the official document issued by a licensed electrical installer after inspecting an electrical installation. It is issued once measurements taken with certified instruments fall within the limits set by law, and is usually accompanied by a floor plan and a single-line diagram of the electrical board.

There are many energy-saving options, for both homes and businesses — from replacing old fittings with LED lighting to automation and power-factor correction. Call us to visit your property, measure the highest-consumption sources, and recommend the solutions that suit your particular needs.

Yes, remote monitoring from a phone or computer is possible from anywhere with an internet connection. We visit your property free of charge to design a security and recording system that fits your needs. Even if you already have a recording system installed, we can often configure it to support remote access.

We can offer reliable and affordable air conditioning solutions. We visit your property, assess your heating/cooling needs, and recommend low-consumption, high-efficiency air conditioning units at competitive prices. Ask us about our current recommendations.

Yes. We can propose affordable upgrades to the existing lighting in common areas and gardens — for example replacing fittings with LED or adding motion sensors — and the effect on consumption is usually noticeable as soon as the first electricity bill after the change.
