Frequently Asked Questions
Must electricians issue a compliance certificate?
Yes. In all states, a Certificate of Electrical Safety or Compliance must be issued for prescribed electrical work. The certificate is separate from the invoice but should be referenced on it.
How should an electrician handle after-hours rates?
Clearly list the after-hours or emergency surcharge as a separate line item on the invoice. Common practice is to charge 1.5x the standard rate for after-hours and 2x for weekends and public holidays.
Do electricians need to lodge a TPAR?
If you pay subcontractors for electrical services and you are in the building and construction industry, you must lodge a Taxable Payments Annual Report with the ATO by 28 August each year.
