An Electrical COC (Certificate of Compliance) is not about paperwork, it is about safety and legal responsibility. It confirms that an electrical installation has been inspected and meets the required safety standards. Without a valid COC, property transfers, sales, and certain renovations can be delayed or blocked entirely.

Many properties fail a COC inspection due to outdated wiring, unsafe connections, overloaded distribution boards, or unapproved electrical work done over time. Identifying these issues early prevents safety risks such as electrical fires, power failures, and electric shock.

A proper COC inspection is detailed and methodical. Each circuit, connection, and safety component must be checked to confirm it complies with regulations. If problems are found, they must be corrected before a certificate can be issued. Cutting corners or rushing this process puts occupants and property at risk.
