Missing or badly placed sockets and switches
Connections behind doors or too far from where they are used are hardly practical. Later corrections often mean that finished walls have to be opened up again.
Electrical final fit-out, distribution board & smart home: function testing matters now
The walls are closed, now the visible electrics are installed. Faults in sockets, switches, network or distribution boards often only show at move-in and get expensive. Check systematically now before sign-off.
The most frequent expensive defects at final fit-out and smart home
Distribution board unclear or incomplete
Missing labels, overcrowded boards or messy wiring make every later upgrade and every fault hunt harder.
Network cabling and smart home without proof
Cat cables, ceiling sensors and central units must be tested and documented — otherwise you do not know what actually works.
Functions never tested together
Test lighting circuits, sockets, shutters and smart-home scenes individually and together before the site is treated as finished.
What to check and photograph now before sign-off
Check sockets and switches room by room
Take an overview photo per room. Photograph missing or badly placed connections individually and note them down immediately.
Record the distribution board and labelling
Photograph the closed distribution board and legible circuit labels. Do not open the cover for your own safety.
Test network and smart home
Have the electrician demonstrate the function of connections, sensors and central devices and document this.
Switch through all circuits once
Switch through lighting, sockets, shutters and smart-home scenes completely. Note down and photograph anything that does not react, including room and time.
Request test reports
Ask the electrician for the official test reports for the electrical installation and the network. These are important for your insurance.
Secure functions before sign-off
Upload your photos. We help you see what is still missing at the board and in the rooms.
