When to Call an Emergency Electrician
Not every electrical issue is an emergency — but some situations demand urgent attention. You should call us immediately if you experience complete power loss, sparking from outlets, burning smells from your consumer unit, exposed or damaged wiring, or any situation where there's an immediate safety risk to people in the property.
As NAPIT registered electricians in Wakefield, every emergency repair we carry out is completed to BS 7671 wiring regulations and fully certified. We don't cut corners — even under time pressure.
What to Do Before We Arrive
If you smell burning or see sparks, switch off the main isolator on your consumer unit if it's safe to reach. Don't touch exposed wiring or damaged equipment. If there's immediate danger to life, call 999 first. Then call Knox Power & Data on 01924 806 023 — we'll talk you through safety steps and arrange a fast call-out.
After the Emergency
Once we've made your property safe, we may recommend follow-up work such as a consumer unit replacement, an EICR inspection, or even a partial rewire if the wiring is at the root of the problem. We always explain our findings clearly and provide a separate quote for any non-urgent work.
Common Problems We Solve
Complete power loss
Your entire property has lost power and it's not a supplier issue. We diagnose whether it's your consumer unit, main fuse, or internal wiring.
Burning smell from the fuse board
A burning smell indicates overheating connections or arcing — a serious fire risk. Switch off the main isolator and call us immediately.
RCD tripping and won't reset
Persistent tripping points to a short circuit, earth fault, or failing consumer unit. We identify the affected circuit and resolve the fault.
Sparking from sockets or switches
Visible sparks indicate loose connections, damaged wiring, or faulty accessories. Stop using the outlet and get it checked urgently.
