Why Does My Safety Switch Keep Tripping?
If you have a switch that trips too often, then the most common issue is faulty appliances. However, other issues may be nuisance tripping and faulty wiring. Contact The Local Electrician for a same-day electrician to fix your problem.
When Do I Need A Switchboard Upgrade?
The main reasons you need a switchboard upgrade are:
- The switchboard is overcrowded
- Your appliances trip
- Flickering lights
- Outdated fuse
- Burning smell
- Sparks
- Melted or blackened fuses
Contact The Local Electrician for a switchboard upgrade today!
Why Isn’t My Hot Water System Working?
A malfunctioning hot water system is usually caused by a tripped circuit breaker or a faulty thermostat. Regardless of the issue, The Local Electrician can fix it.
Why Are My Lights Flickering?
If your lights are continuously flickering, it may be due to a loose bulb, loose connection, voltage increase or the type of light. If not correctly handled, this could be a minor or a major electrical fault.
What Do I Do With A Beeping Smoke Alarm?
If your smoke alarm is continuously beeping, it may signal that it needs a battery replacement. It’s also possible that it has reached the end of its life span of 8-10 years. If you need an emergency electrician to install a new one, contact The Local Electrician today!
What Is The Difference Between A Fuse Box And Safety Box?
They both perform the same function, which is the protection of your electrical system. A fuse box protects appliances from electrical spikes while a safety box protects people from general electrical hazards. You can count on The Local Electricians to perform fuse box upgrades!
What Is An Electrical Tariff?
This largely depends on what type of electrical repair is needed and what scope of work is required. To help us give you a more accurate quote, please try to detail as much information as possible, such as indoor or outdoor, or if you need materials, etc.
When Should I Call An Emergency Electrician Near Me?
Generally speaking, you should contact an emergency electrician when an urgent power issue threatens your family’s safety. Based on our daily experiences, the most common reasons for contacting an after-hours electrician are as follows:
- Power outage
- Switchboard defect (e.g. buzzing sounds or smoke coming out)
