24/7 emergency electrician, all of Sydney
Power out or something unsafe? Call us now on 0412 424 596
We run a 24/7 emergency service across all of Sydney, and you get a fixed quote before we start.
Is it safe to wait until morning?
Answer a few quick questions and we'll tell you straight. Sometimes the answer is that it can wait, and we'd rather say so than charge you a call-out at midnight.
If there is fire or smoke, or someone has been shocked, call 000 first. Do not use this page.
Turn it off and call now
What you have described is not one to sit on. It needs a licensed electrician tonight.
- If you can safely reach the switchboard, switch off the affected circuit, or the main switch.
- Do not touch the fitting, the board or any damaged wiring.
- If there is fire or smoke, or someone has been shocked, call 000 first.
Worth getting looked at today
That usually is not dangerous on its own, but it does not fix itself and it can point at something that matters. Best sorted today rather than left.
- Leave the affected circuit switched off at the board until it is looked at.
- If the whole place is out, check whether your neighbours have power too. If the street is out it is the network, not your wiring, and there is nothing to pay me for.
- If anything changes, a burning smell, a shock, sparking, stop and call straight away.
Usually not an emergency
That is normally an ordinary job rather than a middle-of-the-night one. Book it in and it gets sorted properly, at a fixed price, with the same guarantee as everything else.
- Leave it switched off at the board or at the wall until it is looked at.
- If anything changes, a burning smell, a shock, sparking, stop and call straight away.
This is general guidance, not a substitute for a licensed electrician looking at it. If you're not sure, call. We'd rather answer the phone than have you guess.
What happens when you call
-
You get us, not a call centre
Ring 0412 424 596 any hour. Tell us what's happening and we'll tell you straight whether it's safe to wait until morning.
-
We triage it on the phone
We talk you through making the area safe, work out whether it's your wiring or a street outage, and sort what we need to bring.
-
Same-day fix
Same-day emergency service. You get a fixed quote before we start, then we repair the fault on the spot wherever parts allow.
-
Certificate and clean up
You get the compliance paperwork, a tidy site and a lifetime workmanship guarantee. If it points to a bigger problem, we quote that separately.
Is it your wiring, or the street?
Two checks tell you a lot. Look outside and see whether your neighbours have lights on or the whole street is dark. Then open your switchboard and see whether a safety switch or the main switch has tripped.
Macarthur sits inside the Endeavour Energy network, so a street or suburb outage is theirs to restore and you report it to them directly. If the power loss stops at your boundary, or a safety switch trips the second you reset it, the fault is inside your home. That one's our job. Not sure which it is? Call us and we'll talk you through it.
Emergencies we fix, day or night
These are the calls we get most at night. If it involves power and it doesn't feel right, ring us anyway. We'd rather talk it through and tell you it can wait until morning than have you sitting next to something dangerous.
Why your safety switch keeps tripping
A safety switch that won't reset is doing its job. An RCD cuts the power the instant it detects current leaking to earth, which is what happens when an appliance fails, a cable is damaged or moisture gets into a circuit.
Don't keep forcing it back on. You'd be overriding the one device protecting your household from a shock. Unplug everything on that circuit and reset it once. If it holds, the last thing you unplugged is the likely culprit. If it trips again with nothing plugged in, the fault is in the wiring and it needs a licensed electrician. We trace the actual cause instead of resetting it and leaving.

Emergency electrician FAQs
The questions that come up on this job more than any other.
A burning smell, sparking, scorch marks, exposed or damaged wiring, a safety switch that keeps tripping, or a total power loss that isn't a grid outage. Anything that feels unsafe, or leaves you without power or hot water, is worth a call on 0412 424 596.
Turn off the affected circuit or the main switch at the switchboard. Unplug the appliances on that circuit, keep water away from anything sparking, and don't touch damaged wiring. If there's smoke or fire, get everyone out and call 000 first, then call us.
Check whether your neighbours have power and whether your safety switches have tripped. Macarthur sits in the Endeavour Energy network, so a street-wide outage is one you report to Endeavour Energy. If it stops at your boundary, it's your wiring, and that's our job.
