Common Electrical Faults Worth Paying Attention To

It is best to consult an electrician for electrical fault finding at least annually to keep your electrical systems functioning smoothly. Some common electrical issues you should pay attention to include:

  • Sudden power outages
  • Flickering and dimming of lights
  • Tripping of the circuit breakers
  • Burning smells come from the switchboard or other power outlets.

These faults may indicate hidden major problems that need to be addressed as quickly as possible.

Common Electrical Emergencies

Electrical Faults Aren’t Always Visible

Sometimes, electrical faults can be hidden in circuits or in underground wiring. Electrical faults rarely surface as a sudden emergency. They can be noticed through subtle signs, which are often easy to ignore. These can be heating of an outlet, flickering and dimming of lights, and circuits tripping now and then.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does electrical fault finding cost?

Our electrical fault finding services are charged for the diagnostic work first. Once the cause is identified, we quote any repair separately, so you can approve the work before committing to the repair.

Why does my safety switch keep tripping?

A faulty appliance can cause repeated trips. Moisture that has entered a circuit can also trigger the safety switch. Damaged wiring is also another possibility. We isolate circuits methodically to identify which one is causing the problem.

Can you find the fault and fix it in the same visit?

Often, yes, when the repair is straightforward and the required parts are available from our end. If more work or different parts are needed, we quote the repair and book it only after your approval.

What happens if you cannot find the fault?

If the source is not immediately identified, we’ll explain what further testing is needed and what that involves. The next step and any additional costs should be confirmed before we proceed with further work.

Should I leave the power off until you arrive?

Yes. Leave a tripped circuit switched off rather than repeatedly resetting it, and unplug the appliance that was running when it tripped. If you notice a burning smell or a hot outlet, call us immediately.

Are your electricians licensed and insured?

Yes. Our electricians are licensed and insured, with contractor licence 497337C available for verification through NSW Fair Trading. Our workmanship is also backed by a general guarantee.
