Ben

At Byrd Electrical, we recently completed an important safety upgrade for our client, Rachel, in Notting Hill. Her home’s air conditioner and hot water circuits were only protected by standard circuit breakers, leaving them without the added protection of safety switches. We were happy to enhance her home’s safety with this crucial upgrade.

Project Details

  • Problem: The existing circuits for the air conditioner and hot water system were only equipped with circuit breakers, which protect against overcurrent and short circuits but do not safeguard against electrical faults that could result in electrocution.
  • Solution:
    • Removed the existing circuit breakers.
    • Supplied and installed new circuit breaker safety switch combination units, providing comprehensive protection for these key circuits.
    • Tested all circuits to ensure proper operation and compliance with safety standards.

Benefits of Safety Switches Over Circuit Breakers

  • Electrocution Protection: Safety switches detect and immediately disconnect power when a fault is detected, reducing the risk of electric shock.
  • Enhanced Safety: They provide an additional layer of protection for people, appliances, and wiring.
  • Compliance: Modern homes and upgrades often require safety switches to meet current electrical safety standards.
  • Peace of Mind: Knowing that your circuits are protected offers a greater sense of security for you and your family.

Absolutely first class service from Byrd Electrical!

Ben and all the team went above and beyond what we expected and took the time to make sure everything was done to the highest standard.

In what felt like the blink of an eye, our job was quoted and the guys were onsite completing our works. Nothing was too much for them. Even when the misses changed her mind about the plans… Boyd, Mark and Rhys got the job done.

It’s great to come across a business that provides this level of service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Byrd Electrical!

Oliver Ruckel
Excellent, friendly service from the Byrd Electrical team. Boyd explained everything clearly when quoting and was happy to answer all my questions. Ben the owner even came back after the job was completed to check everything was working properly, and while he was there found a way to get better performance out of the newly installed exhaust fans and carried out the extra work at no additional cost. Great to deal with - highly recommended!

I had a tricky power outage which seemed to be a mystery. I contacted Byrd Electrical and Mark and Lionel arrived promptly, got straight to work and diagnosed the problem incredibly quickly. What could have been a drawn out and stressful ordeal was resolved in a remarkably short time. Not only did they fix the issue but they took the time to explain. They were professional, kind and clearly knew their stuff. They had a ‘can do’ attitude. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark and Lionel to anyone needing electrical work. They were a pleasure to deal with.
Karen Russell
From my initial enquiry, to quote, to setting a date and installation itself the communication was excellent from all the team involved. When the first heating element proved not suitable for me, Mark immediately tried to find me an alternative solution so they could complete the job same day. He spent time looking for ideas that would work in my bathroom space and came up with what is now perfect solution as I have heat and light without needing to turn on the exhaust fan every time. Mark and Lionel worked efficiently to install ceiling heater lights and I would never know it wasn’t part of the original bathrooms. They were easy to chat with and they also clean up afterwards 😊. Highly recommend.

Fantastic communication throughout, prompt and thorough. Everything was explained well and certificates supplied for the completed work.
I had nearly a full day of work with 2 electricians on site. Both were courteous, clean and friendly.
