Question 1

Why does my circuit breaker keep tripping?

Accepted Answer

Common causes include an overloaded circuit (too many appliances on one circuit), a faulty appliance drawing excess current, damaged or deteriorated wiring, moisture getting into electrical fittings, or a failing circuit breaker itself. Our electricians will test each possibility systematically to identify the exact cause.

Question 2

Is a flickering light dangerous?

Accepted Answer

It can be. While a flickering light can sometimes be as simple as a loose bulb, it can also indicate a loose wiring connection — which generates heat at the loose point and creates a fire risk. If lights flicker regularly, or if multiple lights flicker at the same time, have it investigated by a licensed electrician promptly.

Question 3

I can smell burning from a power point — what should I do?

Accepted Answer

This is a serious warning sign. Immediately turn off the circuit breaker for that outlet at the switchboard, do not use the power point, and call us for an urgent inspection. Burning smells indicate overheating connections or wiring, which is a fire hazard that needs immediate professional attention.

Question 4

Why have I lost power to some rooms but not others?

Accepted Answer

This usually means a specific circuit has tripped at your switchboard. Check your switchboard for a tripped circuit breaker or safety switch and try resetting it. If it trips again immediately, there's a fault on that circuit and you should call us for diagnosis. If it won't reset at all, there may be a short circuit.

Question 5

How much does electrical fault finding cost?

Accepted Answer

We provide upfront pricing for fault finding, which typically starts with a diagnostic fee that covers the first hour of investigation. If the fault is found and repaired within that time, there's nothing extra to pay. If the fault is complex, we'll provide a quote for additional work before proceeding.
