The Forgotten Priority: Why Indian Homebuyers Must Ask About Electricals Too

Paints are seen. Sanitaryware is touched. But electricals?
Theyʼre often ignored—until itʼs too late.

The Curious Case of Selective Awareness

Each year, over 8 lakh residential units are sold
across India’s top urban centres, and many
more transactions happen in Tier-II, Tier-III
cities and rural markets. Yet, in this entire
process, electrical safety remains an invisible,
overlooked element.

Lakhs of buyers walk into a newly purchased home, utterly
unaware of what lies behind the switchboards and concealed
conduits. There is no inquiry, no inspection, and no checklist to
ensure whether the space is electrically safe, compliant, or even
fit for modern appliances.
Walk into any new home discussion and youʼll find the Indian
buyer deeply involved—debating over tile patterns, shortlisting
sanitary brands, confirming the grade of bricks, or selecting
wall paints with precision. And rightly so.
But strangely, when it comes to electricals—the very backbone
of modern living—involvement drops to zero. Beyond selecting
a fan or a white good, the consumer seldom inquiries about the
electrical infrastructure that runs silently behind the walls.

Why Electricals Deserve Equal Attention

Just as you ask about the paint brand or the tile origin, you must also ask:
  • What brand of wires, switchgears, and sockets are being used?
  • Is the brand certified and tested for safety?
  • Does it have its own manufacturing, or is it a generic, unbranded make?
Because unlike paint or sanitaryware, a substandard electrical setup can lead to real danger—short circuits, appliance damage, or worse, fire.

Being Aware Today Secures Your Tomorrow

A good electrical setup is not just about switches and sockets. Itʼs about:
  • Safe current distribution
  • Consistent voltage control
  • Reliable earthing systems
  • And overall system longevity
When you invest in known, authentic electrical brands, youʼre ensuring that your homeʼs core infrastructure is built to last and protect.
