Electrical Emergencies
We Can Help With

Electrical emergencies can take many forms. Some are obvious, while others start with small warning signs that shouldn’t be ignored.

Power Outages and Loss of Power

If your property has lost power but neighbouring homes still have electricity, there may be a fault within your electrical system. Problems can be caused by a tripped safety switch, faulty circuit, damaged cabling, switchboard issue or another electrical fault. Our electrician can assess the problem and determine what is needed to safely restore power.

Safety Switches or Circuit Breakers Keep Tripping

A safety switch that trips once may simply be doing its job. If it keeps tripping after being reset, however, there may be an underlying fault. Common causes can include damaged wiring, faulty appliances, overloaded circuits or moisture entering electrical components. Rather than repeatedly resetting the switch, our electrical fault finding service can help identify where the problem is coming from.

Burning Smells, Heat or Discolouration

A burning smell around a switchboard, power point, light fitting or electrical appliance should never be ignored. Heat, dark marks, melted components or unusual smells may indicate overheating, loose electrical connections or damaged wiring. If the issue appears to be coming from your electrical panel, our electrician can inspect the system and determine whether a switchboard repair or upgrade is required.

Sparking Power Points or Electrical Equipment

Occasional tiny sparks when plugging in some appliances can occur, but repeated, large or unusual sparks should be investigated. Stop using the affected outlet or electrical equipment and arrange for an electrician to inspect it.

Electric Shocks or Tingling

Receiving a shock or tingling sensation from a power point, appliance, tap or other conductive surface can indicate a serious electrical problem. Do not continue using the affected equipment. If someone has received an electric shock or the situation is life threatening, call 000 immediately.

Damaged Switchboards

Your switchboard controls and protects the electrical circuits throughout the property. Burnt components, melting, buzzing, repeated breaker trips or a sudden loss of power may indicate a switchboard problem that requires urgent attention. Our electricians can inspect the problem, make the area safe and advise whether repair or further switchboard work is required.

Storm and Water Related Electrical Problems

Storms, heavy rain and water leaks can create dangerous electrical conditions. If water has entered your switchboard, power points, ceiling wiring or other electrical equipment, avoid touching the affected area and arrange for professional electrical assistance. Never use electrical equipment that has been exposed to water until it has been assessed as safe.

Emergency Power Outage & Electrical
Fault Repairs

When your power suddenly goes out, the first question is whether the problem is affecting the wider electricity network or only your property.

If neighbouring properties still have power, the fault may be inside your home or business.

Our electrician can inspect safety switches, circuit breakers, switchboards, power and lighting circuits, electrical cabling, power points and other electrical connections to locate the problem and determine the appropriate repair.

For more complex or recurring problems, our electrical fault finding service provides more detailed testing and diagnosis.

If the issue involves the connection between your property and the electricity network, specialised work may need to be completed by an accredited Level 2 electrician.

Emergency Switchboard Repairs

Switchboard faults are one of the reasons homeowners may require urgent electrical assistance.

Older switchboards, ceramic fuses, damaged circuit breakers and loose electrical connections can contribute to loss of power, frequent circuit trips, burning smells, buzzing or crackling sounds, overheating and other electrical problems.

Our electrician can inspect the switchboard and determine whether it can be safely repaired or whether a full switchboard upgrade would be the more appropriate long-term solution.

We called bright force electrical last Sunday night for an emergency and Daniel showed up within the hour as promised. He assured us we would have our power back on, and explained the whole situation thoroughly to us and showed what we needed to do if this was to happen again. Can’t complement Daniel and bright force electrical enough! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for an electrician!

Inner West Electricians were excellent to work with from start to finish. Daniel was extremely professional, did a first look at the job over FaceTime, and got me a fair quote really quickly. He carried out the job, was so polite and thoughtful. He did a great job and left the work area spotless. We will definitely keep Inner West Electricians in mind for future jobs.

Dan did an excellent job replacing the main electrical panel for our home. He had to cut through the stucco to fit a bigger box, but he vacuumed and left the area VERY clean. He also kept me well-informed throughout the process. The new panel looks great. I really appreciate the texts and emails from Daniel updating me about the job from start to finish. I would definitely call Inner West Electricians again for other electrical work at our home.
Reed Wilson
★★★★★
If you have a simple or tricky job, Daniel is your guy. I have had 4 electricians over the years tell me something could not be done, Daniel was able to figure it out. He and his team are trustworthy, on time, polite, friendly, respectful and know what they are doing. They clearly have great communication across their team and also with you, the customer. Highly recommend.

Emergency Electrician FAQs

You should consider calling an emergency electrician when an electrical issue creates an immediate safety concern or seriously affects your property.

This can include sudden power loss, repeated circuit breaker trips, electrical shocks, burning smells, sparking outlets, damaged switchboards, exposed wiring or water coming into contact with electrical equipment.

If there is an immediate danger to life, electric shock, fire or fallen powerline, call 000 or the relevant electricity network provider first.

Check whether neighbouring properties have also lost power. If the whole area is affected, it may be a network outage.

If the problem appears limited to your property, check your switchboard only if it is safe to do so. If the safety switch or circuit breaker repeatedly trips after being reset, stop resetting it and contact an electrician.

A safety switch can trip because of a faulty appliance, damaged wiring, moisture, overloaded circuits or another electrical fault.

Repeatedly resetting the switch without finding the cause is not recommended. An electrician can test the system and determine what is triggering the safety device.

Depending on the condition and age of the equipment, the solution may involve a repair or a complete upgrade.
