Two storeys on a narrow lot
Development of the Coda estate near the shopping precinct began in late 2018, mainly on high-density narrow lots with two-storey homes. Stacked floor plans change how the electrical side is laid out. Upstairs bedrooms often get their own split systems, stair lighting needs two-way switching, and smoke alarms on both levels should be interconnected so one sets off the others. If you're adding a room or air con upstairs, we check whether the existing circuits and switchboard can take it first.
From 1,940 people to over 11,000
There were 1,940 residents at the 2006 Census and 11,351 by 2021, after the Banksia Grove Joint Venture was set up in 2005 to develop the area. That growth means many houses are still fairly young, but a first fit-out doesn't always match how a family ends up using the house. Owners ask for more power points in kitchens and living areas, LED downlights, outdoor sensor lights and data points for a study. Each addition is easier to plan when we look at the whole house at once.
Busy households and bushland backyards
Households averaged three people in 2021, and 57.0% of homes had four or more bedrooms. More people under one roof means more appliances running together: ovens, dryers, air con and chargers. When breakers trip often, the cause can be a board that needs more circuits rather than a faulty appliance. The suburb also includes a 42-hectare Bush Forever zone of retained native bushland, and homes near it can make good use of well-placed outdoor lighting for evenings in the yard.

Questions we get asked
Why does the safety switch trip when the whole family is home?
Often several high-draw appliances share one circuit, or moisture has got into an outdoor point. With households here averaging three people, evening loads add up. We test each circuit, find the cause and, where needed, split the load onto new circuits so the house runs without constant resets.
Can you wire an upstairs split system in a Coda home?
Yes. In the two-storey homes on the narrow Coda lots, we usually run a dedicated circuit from the switchboard to the upstairs unit, after confirming the board has spare capacity. We also check that the outdoor unit's position suits the cable route on a tight block before any work begins.
