- A few common questions we get -
Frequently asked questions
What accreditations or licences should an electrician have in Queensland?
Any electrician working in Queensland must be licensed by the Electrical Safety Office. For full compliance and peace of mind, it’s important to hire a contractor who holds all required industry licences and insurances.
At Bell, we carry:
- A current Electrical Contractor Licence
- Public liability and WorkCover insurance
- Working at Heights and Low-Rise Building Supervisor certifications
- ARCTick accreditation for air conditioning systems
It’s how we ensure every job meets safety standards and regulatory requirements.
Can you work around real estate schedules and tenant access?
Yes. We regularly work with property managers, landlords and tenants to coordinate jobs with minimal fuss. We understand how important timing and communication are when managing a rental.
We can help with:
- Routine safety checks and compliance updates
- End-of-lease electrical repairs or upgrades
- Flexible scheduling with tenant notice
Our team is respectful, punctual and always mindful of access protocols.
What should I do if I lose power in just one part of my home?
A partial outage usually means something has tripped a safety switch or blown a fuse. It’s not the same as a full street-wide blackout. If it’s isolated to one circuit, it’s often a fault in an appliance or a wiring issue.
Steps to take:
- Check your switchboard for any tripped breakers.
- Unplug recent appliances from the affected area.
- Try resetting the switch, but only once. If it trips again, leave it off and call an electrician.
If the issue persists, give us a call. We’ll send a licensed electrician to diagnose and fix it safely.
Do you install new circuits for appliances like ovens or EV chargers?
We do. Many modern appliances such as wall ovens, cooktops or electric vehicle chargers require dedicated circuits to operate safely. These ensure safe operation and prevent overloading your switchboard.
We can:
- Assess your current wiring and load
- Install dedicated circuits with correct protection
- Ensure compliance with all electrical regulations
Our team has the expertise to guide you through your upgrade or renovation.
How long does a typical residential job take?
It depends on the job, but most domestic work is completed in a single visit. For larger upgrades or installs, we’ll give you a clear timeframe upfront.
Typical timeframes:
- Light fitting or power point: 30–60 minutes
- Ceiling fan or smoke alarm: 1–2 hours
- Switchboard upgrade: Half day
We always aim to deliver great service, work efficiently, and do it right the first time.
Do you work with split system air conditioners?
Yes, we supply and install split systems, and our electricians are fully licensed to complete the electrical component as part of the job. This avoids delays and ensures a smoother process.
We help clients with:
- Choosing the right unit for their home or business
- Safe, compliant installation
- Coordinating both AC and electrical work in one visit
We’re proud to offer end-to-end support for every split system air install.
Do you service clients in regional industries like agriculture or mining?
We do. Our team has worked across many sectors in Mackay and surrounding areas, including agriculture, construction, and the mining industry.
These jobs often involve:
- Power upgrades for remote sheds or facilities
- Maintenance of pumps, lighting, and control panels
- Ongoing service support for evolving site needs
Whether it’s a domestic property or an industrial site, we’re equipped to handle complex work in any setting.
Do you offer advice before booking a job?
Yes, and we reckon it's one of the reasons people call us back. If you're not sure what you need, we’re happy to chat through your electrical needs and give honest, practical advice.
Whether it’s over the phone or during a site visit, we’ll:
- Talk you through your options

- Make sure it fits your budget and timeline
No pressure, no fluff. Just a clear path forward.
