Many thanks to the lad at HG Electrical! Cam you are an absolute master at what you do! From plans to the end results, you have delivered and exceeded your customers expectations, not to mention the after hours support, most big company’s after 5pm don’t want to know you.
Doing an entire house and project managing most rooms at 6pm going that’s a great idea tell the sparky, to be able to throw ideas at Cam and get a response is another big pro!! Happily recommend this sparky to all hands down - Jamie Peters

The difference between residential and commercial lighting comes down to purpose, design, and function:
Purpose:
Residential lighting is all about looks and comfort, making homes feel warm and inviting.
Commercial lighting is for workplaces and businesses, focused on function, productivity, and efficiency.
Lighting Type:
Homes use softer, stylish lights for mood and aesthetics.
Businesses need bright, durable lighting that covers large areas.
Design & Install:
Residential lights match a home’s style, from pendant lights to warm LEDs.
Commercial setups use industrial-grade fittings, often with motion sensors or automated systems.
Rules & Power Use:
Commercial lighting follows strict energy codes and runs for longer hours.
Residential lighting is about personal comfort more than strict energy rules
