⚡ DON’T DIY YOUR ELECTRICAL WORK! ⚡

We love a good DIY project as much as the next person... painting, gardening, putting together flat-pack furniture that definitely doesn’t need instructions. 😂

But when it comes to electrical work, that’s where we draw the line.
Trying to fix, install or alter electrical work yourself can be dangerous and may leave you with more than just a wonky light fitting!

🔥 Electrical faults
⚡ Electric shock
🏠 Damage to your home
🚨 Fire risk
💰 And potentially a much bigger repair bill!

If your electrical job requires a licensed electrician, leave it to the professionals.

The Barcam team has the experience and knowledge to get the job done safely and properly.

So put the screwdriver down, step away from the switchboard and give us a call. 😉

⚡ 5 SIGNS YOUR SWITCHBOARD NEEDS ATTENTION ⚡

Your switchboard is the heart of your home’s electrical system, so it’s important not to ignore the warning signs.

🚨 1. Your circuit breakers keep tripping
If you’re constantly resetting breakers, there could be an underlying electrical issue that needs investigating.
💡 2. Your lights are flickering
Flickering or dimming lights can indicate loose connections, overloaded circuits or other electrical problems.
👂 3. You hear buzzing or crackling
Your switchboard shouldn’t be making strange noises. Buzzing, humming or crackling sounds should be checked by a licensed electrician.
🔥 4. You notice a burning smell or heat
A burning or melted-plastic smell around your switchboard is a serious warning sign. Turn off the power if it is safe to do so and get an electrician to inspect it.
🏠 5. Your switchboard is old or outdated
Older switchboards may not provide the same level of protection as modern systems. Upgrading can improve safety and help protect your home and family.

⚡ Don’t ignore the warning signs.

If your switchboard is showing any of these symptoms, give the team at Barcam Electrical a call. We can inspect your switchboard, identify potential issues and recommend the right solution.

📞 Contact Barcam Electrical today to book an inspection.

🍬 THAT FACE YOU GET AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN THE LOLLY JAR HAS BEEN FILLED UP… 😂

Forget the weekend.
THIS is happiness. 😍🍭

A freshly topped-up lolly jar in the Barcam office = productivity levels restored. ⚡

Friday night we kicked off the Barcam soccer journey, and wow, was it..... interesting 😂

Our mixed social squad came ready for fun, even if some of us are still figuring out which way the ball is supposed to go.
We didn’t win, we lost by one goal, but the beers after? Totally worth it 🤤🍻

This is us every Friday night for the next 10 weeks, so let’s improve, fail, and celebrate together.

Funniest moment: Britt yelling “NO TRY” when the other team missed a goal - pure comedy 😂🤣

Next week: same time, same chaos, more practice and hopefully fewer "where should I stand" moments.

We are on a roll this week knocking out customer poles. This morning we are helping out Barcam Electrical - Lic 66978 at Victoria Plains. The vac truck came in handy to hydro vac the house sub mains and reroute to new pole!
