    ants – assuming sufficient funds in the Sinking Fund, wouldn’t it be easier for the Owners Corporation (O/C) to simply pay its Contractor to undertake all the electrical works required, and for individual Owners to only themselves pay that Contractor for anything extra such as additional / double-powerpoints to replace singles within their Units?

    You could well find that as the O/C’s Contractor has already inspected the wiring within individual Units and therefore knows the building’s distribution system (backbone), that the resultant ease of installation, less need for coordination with other Contractors, and less invoicing would result in a lesser cost overall (i.e. O/C + Owners’) – and everyone’s  sharing the costs derived from the funds that they’ve already contributed.

    Just a thought….. unless of course there’s not enough in the Sinking Fund (?).
