Once you have decided to sell your house, you have to get a Certificate of Compliance on the electrical installation. To think that "everything works", is not right. The compliance certificate means that the electrical installation is safe for the new owner and compliant to SANS 10142 ed. 3. The cost of the repairs might shock you, as you do not know the installation laws. It is iwse to have your CoC done BEFORE the estate agent asks for it. If the cost of repairs is high, you can add it to your selling price; that way the buyer actually pays for the CoC. Who has the advantage of a safe and compliant house? Sometimes the repairs on an electrical installation is high. This might be "food for thought".
