My power keeps tripping - what should I do?
If your power keeps tripping, unplug appliances on the affected circuit if it is safe to do so, then try resetting the switch once. If it trips again, do not keep forcing it back on, as there may be a fault with an appliance, circuit or wiring. Call an emergency electrician near me for safe testing and fault finding in your Banbury home.
Is a burning smell from a socket an emergency?
Yes. A burning smell from a socket, switch, fuse board or appliance point should be treated as an emergency. Turn off the affected circuit at the consumer unit if it is safe, stop using the socket, and call for help.
