All Queensland dwellings, caravans and motorhomes must have compliant smoke alarms installed by 1 January 2027.  

If you are selling, renting, or re-renting a dwelling: you must already have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms installed.

If you own a caravan or motorhome: from 1 July 2024, all newly registered or transferred Queensland caravans or motorhomes must have compliant interconnected smoke alarms.

For all other dwellings, caravans, and motorhomes: you have until 1 January 2027 to ensure compliant interconnected smoke alarms are installed.

240-volt smoke alarms connect to the electricity supply and must be connected by a licenced electrician.

To safely fix a tripped power supply, locate your switchboard, unplug your appliances, and reset the tripped switch.

- Finding and Resetting the Switch

- Find the board: Go to your switchboard (usually in the garage, laundry, or near the front entrance).

- Look for the tripped switch: Find the lever that is flipped to the "off" position or stuck in the middle.

- Turn it off then on

You should stop resetting your electrical panel and call a licensed Electrician if:

- The breaker trips instantly, even with nothing plugged into the outlets.

- You smell burning, notice melted plastic, hear buzzing sounds near the panel, or see scorch marks.

- The tripped switch feels incredibly hot to the touch
