Kogarah Housing and Electrical Needs
Kogarah contains a significant number of older weatherboard and fibro homes dating from the early-to-mid 20th century, particularly surrounding the commercial centre. These original homes sit alongside brick residences from the 1950s-70s and an increasing number of modern unit developments near transport links.
Older weatherboard and fibro homes often contain original knob-and-tube or cloth-insulated wiring that poses serious safety risks and requires complete replacement. Apartment buildings need regular electrical maintenance including common area lighting and compliance with body corporate obligations.
Common Electrical Issues in Kogarah
Electrical problems in Kogarah often relate to the age and condition of the varied housing stock:
- Dangerous old wiring in weatherboard and fibro homes including cloth-insulated cables and outdated ceramic fuse boards
- Insufficient earthing systems in pre-1980s homes failing to provide adequate protection against electrical faults
- Overloaded electrical circuits in older properties unable to support modern appliances and home office equipment
- Common area electrical faults in older unit blocks including shared meter box issues and inadequate stairwell lighting
