Apartment Electrical Wiring in Caransebeș

About this service

A properly rewired installation gives you peace of mind for the next 30–40 years. The electrician sizes each circuit to the load it feeds, uses copper conductors of 1.5 mm² for lighting, 2.5 mm² for sockets, and 4–6 mm² for heavy appliances, runs everything in conduit so a new cable can be pulled later, and separates circuits so a single fault doesn't leave the whole flat without power. Earthing is provided at every socket, and at completion the insulation resistance and the continuity of the protective conductor are measured, with the results recorded in writing.

What to check before hiring a apartment electrical wiring

Plan socket and switch positions before the chasing starts — moving them later is expensive
Add 20–30% more sockets than you think you need; the marginal cost now is small
Ask for conductors to be run in conduit so new cables can be pulled in future
Run network cables now, even if you use wireless — you won't get another chance without opening walls
Request a plan of the cable routes so you know where it's safe to drill
Check that every socket has the protective conductor properly connected, not just contact to the housing

Frequently Asked Questions

Can cables be installed without chasing the walls?

There are alternatives: surface-mounted PVC trunking, running above a plasterboard ceiling, or pulling through existing conduit if it's clear and sound. Each has aesthetic or practical limitations. Chasing into the wall remains the standard approach in a full renovation.

Should we run network or TV cables now?

This is the ideal moment. Even if you mostly use wireless, a network cable to the TV, desk, or the spot where the router will sit costs very little now and is impossible to add neatly later. The same logic applies to spare empty conduits left in place.

What should an electrician's quote contain?

A proper quote lists the number of circuits, route lengths, conductor type and cross-section, the number of junction boxes and accessory points, consumer unit components, and labour separately from materials. Also ask for a route plan, so you know in future where not to drill.

Do I need approval from the building association?

For work inside the flat, approval is generally not required, but associations often ask for advance notice because of noise and working hours. If the work touches the common riser or the meter, the association's consent — and sometimes the supplier's — is mandatory.

What testing is done at the end?

The electrician measures insulation resistance on each circuit, verifies continuity of the protective conductor, tests RCD operation, and confirms correct polarity at the sockets. Results are recorded in a test certificate, which is worth keeping together with the installation schematic.

What warranty comes with a new installation?

Labour is typically warranted for 2–5 years, with components covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Request the warranty in writing and keep the quote, the schematic, and the test certificate — these are the documents that matter if a problem arises or when selling the flat.
