Electrical Safety: A Non-Negotiable for Property Managers

Electricity powers every modern property — but it can also pose serious risks when systems are outdated or poorly maintained. For Johannesburg property managers, routine electrical inspections are essential to ensure safety, compliance, and tenant satisfaction.

Understanding Compliance and Certificates

In South Africa, every property must have a valid Certificate of Compliance (CoC) for its electrical installation. Property managers in Gauteng should schedule regular inspections to identify faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, or outdated switchboards. RM Construction provides qualified electricians who issue updated CoCs and handle all compliance requirements.

Preventing Hazards Before They Happen

Electrical faults are one of the leading causes of fires in buildings. Regular checks of distribution boards, plug points, lighting circuits, and earthing systems can prevent these risks. Scheduling inspections every two years — or after any major renovation — helps you stay compliant and protect your tenants.

Energy Efficiency and Upgrades

Beyond safety, inspections are an opportunity to improve energy efficiency. Upgrading to LED lighting, motion sensors, or smart systems reduces energy bills while modernising your property.
