How to choose an electrician in Wellington
Prescribed electrical work in New Zealand must be done by a registered electrical worker with a current practising licence, under the Electricity Act 1992. You can search any electrician on the EWRB public register. After the work, the electrician must give you a Certificate of Compliance and, when the installation is connected, an Electrical Safety Certificate. Check the EWRB register.
- Search the EWRB register for the electrician who will do the work and confirm the licence is current.
- Ask whether the hourly rate excludes GST and what the minimum charge is. Most electricians charge at least one hour.
- Ask for a Certificate of Compliance when the job is done. It is a legal requirement for prescribed electrical work, and you will need it when you sell or insure the house.
- For EV chargers and heat pumps, ask whether they have checked your switchboard and supply capacity, and whether an upgrade is included in the price.
- On older homes, ask the electrician to tell you in writing whether they found wiring that needs replacing, rather than a verbal 'should be fine'.
