Why Melbourne calls Electrx for electrical emergencies
What to do in an electrical emergency in Melbourne
If you have sparks, smoke, a burning smell or a sudden blackout:
Turn off the main switch at the switchboard if you can reach it safely.
Do not touch exposed wires, damaged power points or anything electrical that is wet.
If there is any sign of fire, get everyone out and call 000 first.
Then call us. We can help fault-find on a phone call and start diagnosing before we arrive.
Emergency electrical problems our Melbourne electricians fix
- Total loss of power: when the street has power and your house does not.
- Half the house without power: a common western suburbs fault, usually a failed neutral or a tripped circuit on an older board.
- Safety switch or circuit breaker that keeps tripping or will not reset.
- Burning smell, buzzing or scorch marks at the switchboard or a power point.
- Blown fuse box on an old ceramic fuse board.
- Flickering or dimming lights across the house, which can point to a supply or connection fault.
- Storm, surge and water damage: safety checks and making the installation safe before power is restored.
- Urgent repairs to damaged circuits and wiring.
- Commercial emergencies: shops, clinics, offices and warehouses that cannot trade without power.
We also attend Powercor defect notices where a deadline is close.

While you wait for your emergency electrician
If you experience sparks, smoke, burning smells, or sudden blackouts:
- Turn off the main power supply if safe to do so
- Avoid touching any exposed wires or water-damaged appliances
- Evacuate the area if you suspect fire risk
- Call Electrx Emergency Electricians
After the emergency: electrical safety checks for Melbourne homes
Once power is back and the fault is fixed, we tell you what caused it and whether anything else on the installation is a risk. Old boards without safety switches, overloaded circuits and ageing wiring are the usual culprits, and fixing them is how you avoid the next call-out. No pressure, just a clear picture of what is there.
