Emergency electrician & fault finding in Newcastle
Lost power to part of the house? A safety switch that won’t stay on? As your local emergency electrician in Newcastle, we track down electrical faults fast and make them safe — tripping RCDs, dead circuits, burning smells and power outages, day or night.
Electrical faults aren’t something to poke at yourself. A safety switch that keeps tripping is doing its job — it’s telling you something’s wrong — and finding the actual cause takes the right test gear and a licensed eye. We work methodically to isolate the fault, tell you plainly what’s going on, and fix it properly rather than papering over it.
We’re available 24/7 for genuine electrical emergencies across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie (Lic 477240C). If it’s not safe, don’t wait — call.
Safe now, fixed properly next
In an emergency our first job is to make it safe — isolate the fault so nothing's live or at risk. Then we find the real cause and fix it right, rather than just resetting the board and hoping.

Frequently asked
My safety switch keeps tripping — what does that mean?
It means the safety switch is detecting a fault and cutting the power to protect you — which is exactly its job. The trick is finding which appliance or circuit is causing it. We test methodically to isolate the cause and fix it, rather than just switching it back on.
Do you do after-hours and emergency call-outs?
Yes — we're available 24/7 for genuine electrical emergencies across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. If you've lost power, smell burning, or have exposed live wiring, call 0422 174 357 straight away.
Part of my house has no power but the rest is fine — can you fix it?
Yes, that's a classic fault-finding job — usually a tripped circuit, a failed connection or a faulty appliance on that circuit. We'll trace it back, find the cause and get the power back on safely.
Should I try to fix an electrical fault myself?
No — electrical work is dangerous and, in NSW, unlicensed electrical work is illegal. If a safety switch is tripping or you smell burning, switch off at the board if you safely can and call a licensed electrician.
