Schneider Electric Boksburg Contact Details

Only a registered person may issue an electrical certificate of compliance, and you need a valid one to sell a property. A certificate is generally accepted for two years, and it must cover the installation as it actually is, including any work done since.

ContactDetails.co.za is an independent directory and is not Schneider Electric.

Why the certificate matters beyond the sale

It is not merely a conveyancing formality. An insurer can decline a fire claim where the installation was not compliant, and unlawful or unsafe wiring is a common finding after a house fire. The certificate is also the record of who is accountable for the work.

• Ask for the registration number of the person signing, and check that the certificate covers the whole installation.
• New work needs its own certificate: a pool pump, a borehole, an outbuilding, a solar installation.
• Earth leakage protection is required and should be tested. Test yours with the button, at least occasionally.
• Keep the certificate. Reissuing one means paying for a fresh inspection.

Solar and backup power

A grid-tied system must be registered with your electricity supplier, and it must disconnect automatically when the grid goes down. An unregistered installation that back-feeds the network can kill someone working on the line.

Never run a generator indoors, in a garage, or near a window. Carbon monoxide is odourless and it kills people while they sleep. Boksburg is on the 011 code. Verified 25 August 2026.
