Tripping & earth leakage
Breaker or earth leakage that won’t stay up? We test circuit by circuit to find the cause instead of guessing.
Find out more about Tripping & earth leakagePretoria East is our busiest area: from Lynnwood and Garsfontein to Moreleta Park, Faerie Glen and Silver Lakes. Many homes here are in security estates and complexes, so we regularly sort out gate motors, electric fences, outdoor lighting and DB boards that trip when everything runs at once.

Choose your suburb for local details, or call us if yours isn’t listed.
The jobs we are called out for most in this area:
Bigger homes run pool pumps, geysers and air conditioners at once. We find overloaded or faulty circuits and upgrade boards that can’t keep up.
Gate motors, electric fence supplies, outdoor and security lighting: when one fails, the whole property feels it. We trace the fault and fix it.
Inverter and battery systems sized to keep lights, Wi-Fi, security and the TV running.
Pretoria East covers a wide spread of suburbs. The older east, around Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Lynnwood, has established homes on large, leafy stands. Faerie Glen was the city’s most easterly suburb when it was laid out in 1974; today the east runs on through Moreleta Park, Garsfontein, Silver Lakes, Equestria and Wapadrand, around Menlyn and along Lynnwood, Atterbury and Garsfontein roads, with the Bronberg ridge beyond.
Homes range from 1970s and 1980s family houses to security estates, townhouse complexes and, further out in Mooikloof, smallholdings and estates on stands of a hectare or more. Older houses often run pool pumps, air conditioners and backup power on boards and circuits that were never sized for them, while bigger properties have long underground cable runs to gates, pumps, cottages and outbuildings.
We test circuit by circuit, explain what we find and fix what is faulty or unsafe. Highveld summer thunderstorms also make surge protection at the DB board worth having. See DB board upgrades, surge protection, pool and borehole pumps and gate motors and security lighting.
