Power cut or electrical fault?
If your neighbours and street lights are also off, it's almost certainly a network power cut, and you should call 105, the free national power cut number. If only your property is affected, check your fuse box for a switch in the down position. If a switch won't reset or everything looks normal but there's still no power, book an electrician.

Frequently asked questions
Who do I call in a power cut?
Call 105 if your street is affected. It's free and connects you to your local network operator.
What if only my house is off?
Check the fuse box. If a switch won't stay up, or nothing has tripped, book an electrician.
Can you fix the main supply fuse?
No. The main fuse and meter belong to the network operator and supplier. We work on everything on your side of the meter.
How much is an emergency call-out?
The call-out price is shown when you book. It covers an electrician attending, making the installation safe and finding the fault. Any repair is priced and agreed with you before work starts.
What should I do if there's smoke or fire?
Leave the property and call 999. Don't try to deal with an electrical fire yourself. Book an electrician once the fire service says it's safe.
