When an electrical fault cannot wait
Make the area safe and arrange professional assessment
Burning smells, smoke, sparking, electric shocks, overheating equipment or exposed live parts can indicate immediate danger. Keep people away, do not touch affected equipment and contact the emergency services where fire or immediate risk is present.
If it is safe to do so, switch off the affected circuit or main supply. Never enter a dangerous area, interfere with sealed equipment or attempt live electrical repairs.
Do not repeatedly reset protection
A breaker or RCD that continues to trip may be responding to a real fault.
Keep the area clear
Prevent occupants, staff or customers from approaching affected equipment.
Share access and location
Provide the full address, property type, site contact and safe access information.

Emergency electrical repair FAQs
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Examples include smoke, burning smells, sparking, electric shocks, overheating, exposed live parts or a serious loss of power affecting safety.
What should I do if I smell burning from an electrical fitting?
Keep people away, switch off the affected circuit or main supply only if safe, and contact emergency services if there is smoke or fire.
Should I keep resetting a tripping breaker?
No. Repeated tripping can indicate a fault. Leave the circuit off and arrange professional assessment.
