Commercial Electrical Safety Compliance

Keeping your business safe, operational and fully compliant.

Compliance isn’t optional; it’s essential

In commercial buildings, electrical safety is a legal requirement and a practical necessity. Systems must be compliant, well-maintained, and regularly inspected to prevent electrical failures, equipment damage and serious safety hazards.

At ACwest Electrical, we help commercial property owners and operators across Western Australia meet their electrical compliance obligations with confidence. Our licensed professionals carry out electrical safety inspections, testing and rectification work in line with all current Australian Safety Standards.

Whether you manage a single tenancy, a multi-storey commercial property or a portfolio of sites, we help ensure your electrical systems are safe, functional and documented, so your business can focus on operating without risk or disruption.

A complete approach to electrical safety compliance

Electrical systems play a key role in workplace safety, business continuity and operational efficiency. If your site contains outdated components, untested residual current devices, or systems that haven’t been assessed in years, it’s time to review your compliance status.

We assess electrical equipment and systems across a wide range of commercial properties, covering everything from emergency lighting and switchboards to power points and cabling. Our qualified technicians work to identify risks, prevent equipment failures and support your obligations under local safety regulations.

Proactive safety, not just paperwork

Electrical compliance is often treated as a checklist, but real safety requires a proactive approach. Many of the most common electrical risks in commercial buildings come from neglected systems, missed testing, or a lack of visibility over aging infrastructure.

We help you move beyond box-ticking by providing detailed inspections and honest feedback. If issues are identified, such as unsafe power outlets, non-compliant RCDs, or potential hazards in key systems, we carry out electrical work to correct them quickly, with minimal disruption to your team or operations.

By addressing risks early, you can avoid power outages, reduce equipment failures and protect your staff and customers from preventable harm.

Supporting your legal and operational responsibilities

If you’re a business owner, building manager or person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU), you are legally required to ensure electrical safety in the workplace. This includes maintaining systems in line with AS/NZS 3000 and other Australian Standards for commercial buildings.

We support clients in meeting their legal obligations by:

  • Providing inspections from fully licensed electricians
  • Identifying non-compliance across key electrical systems
  • Rectifying faults and replacing non-compliant or damaged components
  • Maintaining detailed records and certificates to satisfy audit and insurance requirements
  • Structuring regular testing to match your site’s specific operational needs

You don’t need to navigate compliance alone. We provide professional assistance backed by real-world knowledge, ensuring your site remains both safe and legally compliant.

Built for commercial environments

We work across a broad range of commercial and industrial settings, including offices, shopping centres, logistics hubs, education facilities, aged care buildings and multi-tenant commercial properties. Our services are tailored to each client’s site layout, building use and compliance history.

We understand the challenges of maintaining electrical systems in high-traffic workplaces. That’s why all inspections and testing are scheduled around your operations, with minimal disruption. If your property requires more frequent checks or has unique safety requirements, we’ll create a testing and maintenance plan that fits.
