Welcome To Our Electrical Page
The
electrical system’s here in Southern Cyprus are installed to
English standards, and in accordance with the IEE Wiring Regulation’s.
Cypriot electricians are currently re- training to the 16th
edition of these regulations, which were set in place in
1991.
However in this coming June 2008 we will see the 17th edition
take over from the last in England.
Here at Cyprus Homecare we pride ourselves on the
fact that all our electricians are fully trained to the current
edition of the IEE wiring regulations and appropriate amendments.
A question of safety
Case study
We were recently called out to a villa where the client reported
getting electric shocks from her kitchen sink we eventually
uncovered that the system did not have a connection to earth
and a fault had developed. This caused every piece of metal
connected to the systems earth to become live including the
stainless steel lamp posts by the swimming pool, they have
a 2 year old child and were extremely lucky that no one was
killed….and NO the RCCB trip did
not switch off.
The electrician in charge of the job and the local electricity
company had both not seen this lethal problem.
With the up-surge of DIY and people re-inventing themselves
into Electricians on arrival in Cyprus there are a lot of lethal
problems being created.
Do yourselves a favour and ask to see genuine qualifications.
We will happily show you ours.
