What should I do in an electrical emergency in Canberra?

For fire, smoke or an electric shock, call 000. If it’s safe, switch off at the main switch on your switchboard. Stay well clear of fallen powerlines and report them, and any loss of supply, to Evoenergy on 13 10 93 (Essential Energy on 13 20 80 around Queanbeyan).

For faults inside your home, like a safety switch (RCD) that keeps tripping or a burnt power point, we help during business hours. We don’t offer an after-hours service.

How we handle an urgent repair

We work during business hours and tell you straight how soon we can be there.

  1. Make it safe

    If it’s safe, switch off the affected circuit or the main switch. If a safety switch trips again straight after you reset it, leave it off.

  2. Call or send the form

    Tell us what happened and when. A photo of your switchboard helps. We tell you honestly how soon we can get there.

  3. Find the fault

    We test the circuits to track down the cause, whether it’s an appliance, water getting in, damaged wiring or a failed breaker.

  4. Fixed price for the fix

    We explain what we found and give you a fixed price for the repair before we start it.

  5. Repair, test and certify

    We make the repair, test the circuits and safety switches, and lodge a Certificate of Electrical Safety with Access Canberra within 14 days.

I needed a power point and some light switches replaced recently and having used Fused Electrical last year and happy with their service, I contacted them again. Nick, as ever, responded promptly and once again, completed the work expertly and quickly.

Hi Folks, i had a circuit breaker continually tripping and thus no powerpoints working. Nicolas skilffully trouble shooted the whole thing, and worked with remarkable speed and professionaliam. I thought i had identified all the powerpoints, but i had missed a critical one on the end of the line, and as fate would have it, the solar hot water pump had a short circuit and was plugged into that one. As i say, nicolas was tops. Being a DIY person i was very interested in his work and he explained it all to me as he went along. The call out cost seemed high, but i have nothing to compare it against. And nicolas more than earned the fee and i was super pleased with the price. His focus was getting the job done without going beyond the callout fee. He made that happen. I will definately use this company again. Great experience.

These guys are the best. Initially they came over to put a couple of power points in my bedroom then they ended up installing the TV on the wall. Their second visit was to change all of my light fitting to down lights and fans in the bedrooms. And also updated the meter box to make it compliant. They’ve done a fantastic job. So reliable and efficient. Lovely guys and their work is amazing. I would recommend them 100%.

Andre was friendly, polite, punctual and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends. Thank you Andre! 😊

I am very impressed with Nick at Fused electrical on the recent solar installation . There are a few reasons for this:
They are on time;
Their quote was the best value for money;
Their work is neat and tidy, leaving the site clean;
They explain the installation as well as setting up the app for monitoring;
And, they are friendly and knowledgeable.
I am very happy with the quality and performance of their work and the company.

I can’t speak highly enough of the job Nick and Andre did for me. They updated the power box, installed cameras front and back and removed my gas stovetop and replaced it with an induction cooktop. Highly recommend Fusion Electical.

Nic and Andrea installed and set to work a 10kW, 1P 32kW SigStore battery on Friday last week with full backup. From start to finish Nic was professional and friendly and it was so good know the guy doing the selling also does the install! Cable management is professional and switchboard upgrade super neat. Really impressed.

We heard about Fused from Facebook and chose them for our solar and battery install (Aiko 14kw and 32kwh Sig). Nick came out to the house, gave us a personalised quote and made changes as requested. He explained every part of the quote and the timeline was great for us.
The system is flawless, we have been off-grid since and love being able to use power anytime we want!

There is a reason they have so many 5-star reviews, and we have recommended them to friends and family.
Thank you guys!

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as an electrical emergency?
Fire or smoke from anything electrical, an electric shock, sparking, a burning smell, a power point or switch that’s hot or melted, water near live electrics and fallen powerlines are emergencies. Call 000 for fire or shock, and switch off at the main switch if it’s safe. A circuit that keeps tripping or part of the house without power is urgent, but usually not dangerous once it’s switched off.
Do you offer an after-hours or emergency call-out service?
No. We work during business hours. If something is dangerous outside business hours, switch off at the main switch if it’s safe to do so and call the Evoenergy faults line on 13 10 93 (Essential Energy on 13 20 80 around Queanbeyan). For fire or an electric shock, call 000.
How quickly can you respond to an urgent job?
We prioritise urgent calls during business hours and will tell you honestly how soon we can get to you. We don’t offer an after-hours service: if something is dangerous outside business hours, switch off at the main switch if it’s safe to do so and call the Evoenergy faults line on 13 10 93.
Why does my safety switch keep tripping?
The usual causes are a faulty appliance, water getting into an outdoor power point or light, an overloaded circuit or damaged wiring. Unplug everything on that circuit and reset it. If it holds, plug things back in one at a time to find the culprit. If it trips straight away with nothing plugged in, leave it off and call us. Our guide to why a circuit breaker keeps tripping goes into more detail.
Half my house has no power. What should I check first?
Check whether your neighbours have power. If the street is out, look at Evoenergy’s outage map and report it on 13 10 93 if it isn’t listed. If it’s just your home, look at your switchboard for a tripped safety switch or breaker and reset it once. If it trips again, leave it off and call us during business hours.
How much does an urgent electrical repair cost in Canberra?
It depends on how long the fault takes to find, the parts needed, how easy the wiring is to reach and whether the problem is in an appliance or the wiring itself. We tell you how we charge before we come out, and once we’ve found the fault you get a fixed price for the repair before we start it.
Can I do my own electrical work?
No. In the ACT, electrical wiring work must be done by a licensed electrician, and that includes replacing power points and light switches. You can safely reset a tripped safety switch, change a light globe and unplug faulty appliances. Anything behind the wall plate or inside the switchboard is a job for us.
What experience does your team have with local utility providers?
Our team has 35+ years of combined experience, including years working for the local network operator, now Evoenergy.
