Hi. Recently bought a house and there's no wiring or DB board. There are outlet points but no outlet, no light switches and no lights (there are holes for the plugs and switches already) It is a 3 room house and a granny flat at the back that has a small kitchen and bedroom and bathroom. Need quote for the house and for the single flat (need 3 separate quotes, house, flat, house and flat)

Thermostat makes clicking sound when turning lever. Already tested on alternative power supply without successes. Require quote to repair.
Our HWC switch on the main electric panel has been tripping for the passed week, I thought I repaired it by resetting the main and earth switches but the problem persisted days later. I noticed that the resistance of the HWC (geyser) switch is weak, which I think is the cause of it immediately falling down once pushed up.

I have a secondary DB board for a cottage. The cottage is fed either from eskom or my solar, but the cottage geyser drains the solar battery. There is a meter in the secondary board. The work I require is either to run a second wire from the main board to the second board for the geyer and have a second meter, or to take a feed from other circuits in the secondary board to feed some lights and plugs from the solar during load shedding - also requiring a second meter I think. Hopefully there is space in the board for a second meter. Then there is a circuit that is disconnected because it caused a leakage trip, probably due to a shared neutral, shared between the main and secondary boards.
This enquiry relates to a single story 3 bedroom house that is nearing the end of renovation and probably be put up for sale in two or three months. As far as I know , a registered electrician has worked on tbe house recently but don't know what was done. However I know that another one has to inspect and advise on any repairs required. I think the house is approx 50yrs old
