## Make it safe first

Electrical emergencies create immediate safety risks for homes, rental properties and business premises across Swadlincote and surrounding areas.
- **Sudden power loss:** Total loss of power or tripped circuit breakers that refuse to reset leave your building without heat, light or cooking facilities. We find the source of the trip and make the circuit safe.
- **Burning smells and overheating:** Charred socket outlets, buzzing consumer units and warm switches indicate loose connections or severe overheating. We inspect the equipment immediately to prevent electrical fires.
- **Water ingress into electrics:** Plumbing leaks or roof water entering light fittings, switches or fuse boards create a direct shock hazard. We isolate the affected circuits while keeping safe areas running.

## What happens on the day

When we arrive at your property, we focus on locating hazards and securing your electrical system.
- **Assessing the immediate risk:** We ask you about the symptoms you noticed, locate your consumer unit and check for live hazards such as burning, arcing or water near electrical fittings.
- **Isolating the faulty circuit:** We disconnect power to the affected section of wiring so the rest of your property can remain energized safely while testing takes place.
- **Diagnosing and securing:** Using calibrated test meters, we pinpoint the exact fault, complete an immediate repair if possible, and leave you with a clear plan for any further repairs.

## Emergency electrician questions

### What should I do while waiting for an emergency electrician?

If you notice smoke, sparks or a burning smell, turn off the main switch on your consumer unit if it is safe to reach. Keep away from wet electrical fittings and unplug appliances on the affected circuit.

### Are your phone lines answered around the clock?

Yes, our phone calls are answered any time, day or night. We log your details and arrange attendance to inspect your electrical issue as quickly as our schedule allows.

### Why does my circuit breaker keep tripping immediately?

A breaker that trips instantly usually indicates a short circuit, a grounded wire or a faulty appliance plugged into the line. Forcing the switch to stay up can damage the wiring, so leave it off until tested.

### Can you restore power to my whole house during an emergency visit?

In most situations we can isolate the single faulty circuit and re-energize the unaffected parts of the home, ensuring you have essential lighting and working sockets.

### Do I need to clean up around the fuse board before you arrive?

Having clear access to your main consumer unit, electricity meter and the problem area helps us start diagnosis immediately, but do not move items if doing so puts you near exposed wiring.
