Emergency Electrician
What Is an Emergency Electrician?
An emergency electrician is a fully qualified electrical engineer who provides urgent, on-call electrical services outside of regular hours. They’re trained to resolve critical issues that pose safety hazards or cause major disruptions—such as electrical fires, system failures, or complete loss of power.
Typical electrical emergencies include:
- ⚡ Power outages
- 🔥 Burning smells from outlets or switches
- ⚡ Electrical shocks from appliances
- 🚨 Tripping circuit breakers or fuse box issues
- 💡 Flickering lights with no apparent cause
- 🔌 Buzzing or sparking wires
These situations can be dangerous. Attempting a DIY fix without the right tools and expertise can risk your safety. Our London-based emergency electricians are on standby 24/7 to handle these issues professionally.
