Electrician in Cow Bay
Licensed electricians at Cow Bay, north of the Daintree River. The grid stops at the river, so properties up here make their own power with generators, batteries and inverters, and a fault in the house wiring looks exactly like a fault in the supply until somebody puts a meter on it. We turn up able to tell those two apart, and we build the ferry crossing into the plan for the visit. One outfit, out of Craiglie.

What comes up at Cow Bay
Cow Bay is across the Daintree River and the work reflects it. Fault finding leads by a long way, then safety switches, power points and generator work. Out here a lot of properties make their own power, so what fails and how you fix it is a different job to town.
A generator here had stopped charging the house batteries, and a faulty power point in the generator shed was feeding the chargers. Over the river a lot of properties make their own power, so a fault in the shed is not a nuisance, it is the whole house going dark by evening.

What electrical work comes up most at Cow Bay?
Cow Bay is across the Daintree River and the work reflects it. Fault finding leads by a long way, then safety switches, power points and generator work. Out here a lot of properties make their own power, so what fails and how you fix it is a different job to town.
Can you still get to Cow Bay in an emergency?
Yes. The Daintree ferry is the one thing outside our control: it stops in flood, and it stops overnight. Planned work up here gets booked into a run so a van is already heading that way. The office number is answered 24 hours a day. Commercial customers get our Same Day Service Guarantee: ring by 2pm on a business day and we attend that day. It covers Cow Bay the same as anywhere else on the patch.
