When Should You Call an Electrician?
Some electrical issues appear minor but can indicate a larger fault. Arrange an inspection if you notice any of the following:
- Safety switches or circuit breakers that repeatedly trip
- Power points, switches, or plugs that feel unusually warm
- Buzzing, crackling, burning smells, scorch marks or discolouration
- Lights that flicker, dim unexpectedly or fail repeatedly
- A partial or unexplained loss of power
- Loose, damaged, or sparking electrical fittings
- An older switchboard that still uses ceramic fuses
- Too few outlets, overloaded power boards or extension leads used as a permanent solution
- Electrical work needed for a renovation, new appliance, or property upgrade
If there is smoke, fire, a fallen powerline, electric shock or an immediate threat to life or property, move away from the hazard and contact the appropriate emergency service or electricity network provider. Do not touch exposed wiring or attempt electrical repairs yourself.
