What Is The Difference Between A Commercial And Domestic Electrician?

The main difference between these types of electrician is that while commercial electricians can carry out domestic work, the reverse is not true. Domestic electricians work on smaller scale projects, and are not usually qualified or knowledgeable enough to assist with commercial electrical work in industrial environments. A residential electrician will provide electrical repairs and services for homes. These might be privately owned or rented houses or individual flats. Domestic homes tend to be much smaller than large industrial sites, and usually only have a 200 volt supply, although older homes may have less.


Do You Need A Qualified Electrician For A Domestic Electrical Installation?

Large domestic electrical installations require a qualified electrician to ensure that the work is carried out to the highest possible standard and in-line with relevant safety standards. Even for smaller work, we recommend using a reliable electrician with the Level 3 Award in  Electrical Installations (Buildings and Structures) and the NVQ Level 3 certification in  Electrical Installation by the City and Guilds of London Institute, like Jack Jones Electrical. You can then prevent electrical hazards, ensure your work meets building regulations and is fully safe.


What Types Of Electrical Work Can A Domestic Electrician Carry Out?

Domestic electricians can carry out a range of electrical installations and upgrades for domestic properties with a supply of 200 volts or less. This might include rewiring electrical systems, fixing faulty wiring, installing a new consumer unit (fuse box), fitting new lighting or alarm systems and other aspects of domestic electrical work. As both domestic and commercial electricians, Jack Jones Electrical has the knowledge and skills needed to carry out all kinds domestic installations and work, so no matter what you need, we’re here for you.


How Long Does Domestic Electrical Wiring Last?

Domestic wiring can last for up to 50 years in some cases, but generally it has a lifespan of around 25-30 years. The lifespan of your home wiring will depend on the size of the property, whether proper insulation was used during the initial installation process, and whether the electrical circuits are overloaded. Overloaded circuits may require frequent replacements to avoid electrical faults and potential fire hazards. Jack Jones Electrical can discuss your home’s wiring and how to ensure safe and reliable power for your property, so get in touch today.
