It is always best to err on the side of caution and check with your local council before carrying out any electrical work in your home. They will be able to advise you on whether or not you need a permit, and can also provide you with a list of qualified electricians in your area.

For a house with a backup generator system, you typically need heavy-duty electrical wiring that can handle the generator's power output. This usually includes thicker gauge wires to manage the increased load and prevent overheating. The wiring should connect the generator to a transfer switch, which safely switches the house's power source from the main grid to the generator during outages. It's crucial to ensure that the wiring is in compliance with local electrical codes and standards. Professional installation by a qualified electrician is highly recommended to ensure safety and proper functioning of the backup generator system.

To determine if your house needs rewiring, look for signs like frequent blown fuses, flickering lights, burning smells from outlets, outdated two-prong outlets, and an old fuse box. If your house is over 25 years old and hasn't been rewired, that's also a strong indicator.
