24 Hour Emergency Electrician Reports 4,422 Home Fires Occur Every Year in NWS

24 Hour Emergency Electrician publishes new information designed to help prevent fires of this type caused by an electrical fault

Sydney, NSW -- (SBWire) -- 08/11/2014 --According to Fire and Rescue NSW, 4,422 home fires occur every year in NWS. Although the majority of these fires are due to neglect by a household member, such as when someone goes to sleep with an electric blanket turned on or when a candle is left unattended, some fires occur due to an electrical fault. When one identifies or suspects an electrical fault in the home, an electrician needs to be called in immediately to rectify the situation. One cannot be too careful as it is believed an electrical fault recently caused $300K damage at the Commonwealth Bank in Newstead.

"Citizens typically detect electrical faults before they cause a house fire. When one finds they have lights which are flickering, and changing the light bulb or tightening it doesn't correct the problem, the problem likely lies in the electrical panel wiring or in connections to the fixture. Problems such as this must be fixed immediately to reduce the need for an after hours electrician to be called in as the problem has affected other areas in the home," Mat Dunn, spokesperson for 24 Hour Emergency Electrician in Sydney, states.

Others realize there is a problem when they smell an odor in the home, and this may suggest an overload problem or a faulty device. In addition, if one goes to unplug an appliance or device, only to find the electrical cord or receptacle feels warm to the touch, a call to 24 Hour Emergency Electricians in Sydney is needed. Other signs of an electrical fault include receptacles and switches which work intermittently, electrical shocks when plugging or unplugging a device, and tripped circuit breakers.

"One needs to call in a 24 hour electrician sydney when any signs of an electrical fault are detected. Some homeowners believe they can handle the matter without assistance, yet care must be taken. Power enters an electrical panel even when the main breaker has been turned off, and care must be taken to ensure the proper breaker or fuse is used as the wrong one can lead to overheating and fire within the home," Dunn explains.
