Is this the right Defect Notice?

An electrical defect notice records unsafe or defective conditions observed during a visit and the advice given to the person responsible for the installation.

  • This is a Tradie Forms designed notice, not a regulator certificate.
  • It records conditions observed during the visit and does not certify the whole installation.
Who has to complete the Defect Notice?
Electricians and electrical contractors who find defects during inspections, quoting, maintenance, or other electrical work.
When is it required?
Requirements vary by state, the person issuing the notice, and the work being done. Use this record when written notice is appropriate and check the current regulator rules for the job.
Where does the completed form go?
Give the signed notice to the owner, agent, builder, or other person responsible for the installation and keep a copy with the job.
Can I fill it on my phone?
Yes. Tradie Forms walks you through each section on your phone and downloads the official PDF layout when you are ready.
Will this PDF be accepted?
Tradie Forms downloads your answers in the official PDF layout where supported. Always preview and check the completed PDF before sending, lodging, or handing it over. Tradie Forms does not lodge or certify the form for you.
