Urgent electrical faults and repairs.

Nuisance tripping, flickering lights, hot switches, a circuit that's dead for no obvious reason. We test methodically to find the actual cause rather than swapping parts until it stops, and we tell you what we found.

01 / The job

Finding the cause, not just resetting the switch.

A safety switch that keeps tripping is doing its job: something on that circuit is leaking current. Resetting it and hoping is how small faults become big ones. We isolate the circuit, test it properly, and track down the appliance, fitting or cable that's responsible.

Our testing covers insulation resistance and earth continuity, and where it's warranted we use thermal imaging to find connections that are running hot before they fail. You get a written summary of the fault and the fix, not just an invoice.

Genuine safety issues, such as burning smells, hot switchboards or exposed conductors, get priority over scheduled work. Call us and we'll tell you honestly how quickly we can get there. If we can't get to you fast enough, we'll say so rather than leave you waiting.

If there's fire, smoke or someone has had an electric shock, call 000 first.

If power lines are down or the whole street is out, call your electricity distributor's faults line (it's on your power bill) and stay well clear of fallen wires.

For anything else urgent, call us on 0414 157 006.

How we find faults

  • Insulation resistance and earth continuity testing
  • Thermal imaging on boards and connections where it's warranted
  • Safety switch and smoke alarm testing to schedule
  • A written summary of the fault and the fix

Common call-outs

  • Safety switch or breaker that keeps tripping
  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Power points or switches that feel warm or crackle
  • A circuit, room or appliance with no power
  • Water leak near wiring, fittings or the switchboard

02 / How we work

Four steps, no surprises.

The same process whether it's a single power point or a full rewire.

  1. STEP 01

    We come and look

    For anything beyond a simple repair we attend in person. Quoting a switchboard from a photo helps nobody.

  2. STEP 02

    You get a fixed price

    Itemised, in writing, with what's included and what isn't. If we hit something genuinely unforeseen, you hear about it before we proceed.

  3. STEP 03

    We do the work

    Arriving when we said, drop sheets down, dust managed, and the site left clean at the end of every day — not just the last one.

  4. STEP 04

    You get the documentation

    Certificate of Electrical Safety, a labelled board schedule, test results, and warranty details. Filed, not verbal.

04 / Questions

Asked often.

How quickly can you get to an urgent fault?

Call us and we'll tell you honestly. Genuine safety issues, such as burning smells, hot switchboards and exposed conductors, get priority over scheduled work. If we can't get to you quickly enough, we'll say so rather than leave you waiting.

Do you charge for quotes?

Quotes for planned work (switchboards, EV chargers, splits, rewires and electrification) are free and given in writing after we've been on site. Fault finding is charged, because the diagnosis is the work; we'll tell you the call-out rate on the phone before we book anything in.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. NPJ Electrical Services is a Registered Electrical Contractor, REC 29126, with full public liability cover, and we issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety for every job. Our licence and ABN are in the footer and on every quote we send.
