Common Electrical Emergencies We Handle:
- Sudden power outages affecting your property
- Sparking outlets or switches
- Exposed or damaged wiring
- Overloaded circuits or tripped breakers
- Smoke detector malfunctions or failures
Pro Tip: If you experience an electrical emergency, turn off the power at your main switchboard to avoid further risks. Then, call us on 1800 957 769, and we’ll guide you through the following steps while dispatching a qualified electrician to your location.
- Switchboard Repairs and Upgrades
Your switchboard is the nerve centre of your electrical system, distributing power throughout your property. An outdated or faulty switchboard can lead to power interruptions, electrical surges, or fire hazards. As a leading electrician in Sydney, we specialise in inspecting, repairing, and upgrading switchboards to handle modern energy demands safely and efficiently.
Signs You May Need a Switchboard Upgrade or Repair:
- Flickering lights or frequent power outages
- Circuit breakers that trip frequently or don’t reset properly
- Burning smells or buzzing sounds near the switchboard
- An older fuse-based switchboard instead of circuit breakers
- Limited capacity for additional appliances or renovations
Did You Know? Many older Sydney homes still use switchboards that aren’t equipped to manage the power needs of today’s appliances and technology. Upgrading your switchboard enhances safety and improves efficiency, reducing the risk of future electrical issues.
- Smoke Alarm Installation and Maintenance
Smoke alarms are your first line of defence against fires; having them installed and maintained correctly can save lives. At Aussie Services, we provide installation, maintenance, and testing services to ensure your smoke alarms are fully functional and compliant with local safety standards.
Key Benefits of Installing and Maintaining Smoke Alarms:
- Early detection of fire hazards, giving you time to react
- Compliance with Sydney’s legal safety requirements for residential and commercial properties
- Reduced risk of injury, fatalities, and property damage
Tip for Homeowners: Test your smoke alarms monthly and replace the batteries annually to ensure they’re always ready to protect you. If your alarms are older than 10 years, it’s time for a replacement.
- Fault Detection and Diagnosis
Electrical faults can be tricky to spot but cause significant disruptions if left untreated. Our experienced electricians use advanced diagnostic tools to quickly and accurately identify the source of the problem, whether it’s faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, or malfunctioning appliances.

- Frequent tripping of circuit breakers
- Buzzing or humming noises from outlets or switches

Common Electrical Problems We Solve (and How We Fix Them!)
Electrical problems have a way of sneaking up on you—one moment, everything is fine, and the next, you’re dealing with a blackout, flickering lights, or a mysteriously warm outlet. At Aussie Services, we’ve seen it all, and we’re here to make sure your home or business stays powered, safe, and stress-free. Here are some of the most common issues we tackle and how we can help.
- Power Outages and Tripping Circuits
You’re halfway through brewing your morning coffee when the power suddenly cuts out. Or maybe it’s a classic scenario: you plug in the kettle and the toaster at the same time, and the circuit breaker trips yet again. Sound familiar?
Power outages and tripping circuits are often caused by:
- Overloaded circuits: Too many high-demand appliances running on the same circuit.
- Faulty appliances: A malfunctioning device can draw more power than the system can handle.
- Worn-out wiring: Aging or damaged wires can cause short circuits and power disruptions.
How We Fix It: Our electricians will inspect your switchboard and circuits to identify the cause of the problem. Whether redistributing your appliances across circuits, repairing damaged wiring, or upgrading your switchboard to handle modern energy demands, we’ll ensure your power stays reliable.
- Flickering or Dimming Lights
You sit down to read a book, but the lights keep flickering like you’re in a haunted house. Or maybe your dining room lights dim every time you turn on the microwave. These issues might seem minor, but they can signal underlying problems like:
- Loose connections: A faulty connection between the light fixture and the power source.
- Overloaded circuits: Too many devices pulling power at once.
- Voltage fluctuations: Inconsistent power supply from the grid or internal wiring issues.
How We Fix It: We’ll track down the root cause of the flickering or dimming and fix it for good. From tightening connections to redistributing power loads or upgrading your electrical system, we’ll ensure your lights shine steadily.
Anecdote: A recent customer called us because her living room lights flickered every time she used her hairdryer. We found that an overloaded circuit was to blame, so we rerouted her appliances to separate circuits—and she’s now enjoying a hairdryer-powered glow without interruptions!
- Electrical Surges and Overloads
Have you ever had a power surge fry your computer or smart TV? Electrical surges happen when there’s a sudden spike in voltage, often caused by:
- Lightning strikes
- Faulty appliances
- Power grid fluctuations
- Overloaded circuits
These surges can damage expensive devices and shorten their lifespan.
How We Fix It: Our team installs professional-grade surge protectors to safeguard your home or business from voltage spikes. Think of it as insurance for your tech – no more worrying about replacing appliances after every storm.
Tip: If you’ve experienced multiple surges recently, it might indicate a larger issue with your wiring or appliances. We’ll perform a full inspection to ensure everything is running smoothly.
- Faulty Appliances and Wiring
You plug in your old gas heater and suddenly smell something burning. Or maybe your outlets feel warm to the touch—a clear sign of trouble. Faulty appliances and outdated wiring are some of the most common electrical hazards we encounter.
Common Problems Include:
- Frayed wires can spark and cause fires.
- Appliances that short out due to internal faults.
- Older wiring systems that can’t handle today’s power needs.
How We Fix It: We’ll test your appliances and wiring to pinpoint the issue. If it’s a faulty appliance, we’ll recommend repairs or replacements. For wiring issues, we can rewire the affected areas or upgrade your entire system to meet modern safety standards.
Anecdote: One customer reported that their circuit breaker tripped when using their vintage toaster. After inspecting the wiring, we found it needed to be grounded correctly. A quick fix saved their morning toast routine—and prevented a potential electrical fire!
At Aussie Services, we don’t just fix electrical problems; we make your home or business safer and more efficient. Whether it’s an annoying flicker or a serious wiring issue, we’ll get the job done right. Call us today to schedule an inspection or learn more about how we can help!
