Is Your Solar System Safe and Compliant?
Sydney has more rooftop solar than any other city in Australia but many older systems are no longer compliant, underperforming, or showing signs of serious fire risk. High Demand Electrical provides detailed solar system inspection reports for homeowners, landlords, and pre-purchase buyers so you know exactly what you have on the roof and whether it needs attention.

Why Ageing Solar Systems
Are a Fire Risk
Sydney was an early adopter of rooftop solar, and a large share of the city's installed systems are now well past their tenth birthday. Ageing components — particularly rooftop DC isolators — are a well-documented cause of solar-related fires in Australia, alongside degraded panel connections and ageing inverters that are no longer performing to spec. None of this is visible from the ground, which is exactly why a proper roof-level inspection matters.
What Our Solar Inspection Covers
- DC isolator condition and compliance with current standards
- Inverter performance, faults and error logs
- Panel condition, hot spots, and visible degradation
- Roof mounting, flashings, and cable management
- AC switchgear and connection to the main switchboard
- Earthing and bonding of the PV array
- Labelling and documentation compliance
- System performance check against expected output
Understanding the Inspection
Outcome Categories
Our reports rate your system against the same three-tier framework used in national solar inspection programs: Adequate (no significant issues), Substandard (technical non-compliance that should be addressed but isn't an immediate danger), and Unsafe (requiring urgent rectification). This gives you a clear, objective read on where your system stands rather than a vague pass/fail.

By ensuring your property is inspected by High Demand Electrical, you are taking a significant step towards securing its safety and enhancing its efficiency. Reach out today to learn more about how we can assist you in maintaining a safe and compliant electrical environment.
A large share of Sydney's rooftop solar is now 8-15 years old. Ageing components — particularly DC isolators — are a well-documented cause of solar-related fires, and older systems are often non-compliant or underperforming.
Systems are rated Adequate, Substandard (non-compliant but not an immediate danger), or Unsafe (requiring urgent rectification) — the same framework used in national inspection programs.
Typically from around $175-$300 depending on system size and roof access. We provide a fixed, upfront quote before booking.
No — an independent inspection doesn't void your warranty, and catching a fault early can support a warranty claim while the system is still covered.
Every 2-3 years as a general guide, immediately after a major storm, before buying a property with existing solar, and once the system passes 10 years old.
Yes. Our Level 2 electricians can quote and complete rectification work directly, from DC isolator replacement to switchboard upgrades.
Testimonials
"Chris was the professional, punctual and his services are exceptional. Chris re-wired the entire property, chased the electrical work in the bathroom and kitchen areas, left a clean and tidy environment and his open communication and dialogue was a welcomed experience.
When he quoted an arrival time, he was there. He talked me through what he was doing, and provided feedback/suggestions on how to tackle any issues. I felt part of the process, as opposed to being another Customer.
A pleasure to deal with, and I recommend his services. I'll be definitely calling him again with any electrical work I need done."
