What we get called to
The faults that stop service
In a kitchen an electrical fault is not an inconvenience, it is a section of the menu you cannot serve. These are the situations we deal with.
Tripping circuits and RCDs
Breakers and RCDs tripping under load, taking out equipment or a section of the kitchen partway through service.
Equipment electrical faults
Electrical faults on ovens, dishwashers, cooking equipment and kitchen machinery, diagnosed on the equipment rather than only at the isolator.
Three phase supplies
Supply and connection faults on three phase cooking equipment, dishwashers and larger kitchen plant.
Exhaust and canopy controls
Fan supplies, fan controls, starters and control panel faults affecting canopy and exhaust operation.
Switchboards at capacity
Switchboard faults, and boards that have run out of room or capacity as the venue has added equipment over the years.
Cool room electrical
Supplies, isolators, controls, contactors, protection and electrical fault finding associated with fan motors and equipment.
Lighting
Front of house and back of house lighting faults, repairs and replacements.
Capability
Electrical repairs for kitchen equipment
Fault finding and repairs to the electrical components of commercial kitchen equipment, including elements, thermostats, motors, wiring and controls. Where a fault sits in the electrical side of the equipment, we can fault find and repair it.
- Elements and thermostats
- Contactors, relays and switches
- Motors and motor circuits, including fan motors
- Internal wiring and terminations
- Control circuits, controls and control panels
- Supplies, isolators, circuits and connections
- Canopy and exhaust fan supplies, fan controls and starters
- Electrical wiring and controls associated with gas interlock systems
- Cool room electrical supplies, isolators, controls, contactors and protection
Because we can fault find beyond the supply and connection point, an electrical fault within the equipment can often be diagnosed and repaired as part of the same electrical job.
Upgrades and additions
Adding equipment, or changing the kitchen
As venues add or change equipment over time, switchboards can eventually run short of available capacity or space.
- Supplies for new cooking and kitchen equipment
- Additional circuits and switchboard modifications
- Switchboard upgrades and replacements
- Load considerations when equipment is added or changed
- Kitchen fit-out and refurbishment electrical work
Larger installation work is covered on the projects and installations page.
Testing and records
Routine compliance testing
RCD testing, test and tag, and emergency and exit lighting testing with the associated records and registers.
Testing can be arranged on its own or as part of an ongoing electrical maintenance arrangement for the venue. There is more detail on the commercial electrical page.
Attending
Working around trading
Planned work is scheduled around service and trading hours wherever it can be, so the kitchen is not down when you need it.
For breakdowns and after-hours requirements, call to check current availability.
