Garden Lighting in Cambridge

Garden Lighting in Cambridge

We recently just finished a stunning lighting design and installation to a customers garden in Cambridge

 

The project was very different from out usual garden lighting projects. The garden was already finished and planted! So we couldn't dig and bury cables into positions and we also had to be careful about damaging plants and corrugated piping 

 

So the whole project was a complete retrofit! 

 

We had to think carefully about how we were going to install the cables and how the customer would be able to functionally switch them on

Proud to be Huntingdon's local electrician

A strange title you may feel but to me this is an all encompassing statement and one which hopefully every electrician will say. But does their work and standards reflect how proud they say they are

 

I’ve said it before and I will say it again that every electrician is different. Unfortunately no electrician is exactly the same and therefore it is important that as the customer, you know what will work best for you. Let me explain in more detail

 

Electrical Hazards in the home

Research available from the electrical safety body, the NICEIC, has found that the public are mostly unaware of the electrical dangers lurking in their homes. Householders that were questioned had electrical hazards in their homes including exposed bare wires, loose cables, old wiring and overloaded sockets

 

Appliance Safety

Many house holders in Huntingdon often ring me to ask if there is a problem with their electrical supply. Understandably they are not sure if it is safe to continue to use their electrical appliances at home or if they should call an electrician

 

The basic advice is if you suspect a problem with an electrical appliance, unplug and stop using it immediately, however if you suspect a problem with your actual electrical installation then consult your local qualified electrician who will be happy to come and take a look
