More than any other sector, the need for the commercial industry's electrics to be reliable is of the utmost importance. When an electrical fault strikes, the repair work must be long-term as problems will only escalate if a quick-fix solution is implemented instead.
Here at Horsell Electrical Contractors, we can provide all of your commercial contracting services, using the most up to date technology and components.
We ensure you meet the latest safety standards and regulations, whether you require full shop refurbishment or the installation of new office lighting. We’ll even handle safety inspections, emergency repairs, and maintenance work so you can focus on running your business.
It is important for all commercial businesses to use experienced electrical contractors as even the shortest power cuts of the smallest faults can result in significant losses in terms of money, time, and productivity.
At Horsell Electrical Contractors, we’ll diagnose and repair problems, and offer solutions to minimise downtime in the future for Industrial and Residential customers in Maitland and Newcastle.
Commercial electricians work in factories, industrial units, warehouses, shops and commercial buildings.

Yes. Business owners and their directors are responsible for the safety of their workers and anyone o the property. Electrical safety is a big responsibility and requirement, more info can be found out here. There are also some minor differences between territories but NSW is fairly standard and can be seen here. If you have any queries then please give us a call.
In NSW it is law to have your electrical items (including RCD’s/Safety Switches) by a qualified electrician every 12 months. Avoidance can result in heavy fines. Unsafe electrical items can cause death so it is very important to have testing and tagging done once a year.
· Commercial work can be deemed more important than domestic, but in reality, all the same rules apply when choosing. Ask some of these simple questions to your local commercial electrician:
· What qualifications and how many years of experience do they have?
· Are they specifically experienced in my industry for the type of work I require?
· what will be done by fully qualified electricians compared to supervised trainees?
· Can they give examples of their work and provide references or reviews?
· How professional do they seem and how do they present themselves?
· Can they work with other contractors or site managers?
