Whether that be a blown fuse or flickering lights, a lot of us might find the thought of a serious electrical fault terrifying. <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ve put together the top 3 signs that you should call an electrician, so you can feel assured that you know when a problem is large enough to call someone to help.<\/p>\n<h3>Buzzing from the fuse box<\/h3>\n<p>Electricity is moving around in your fuse box all the time, so a light hum coming from your consuming unit shouldn&#8217;t be anything to worry about.<\/p>\n<p>But if you hear a loud buzzing that increases when you&#8217;re using high power appliances, you should call an electrician to investigate.<\/p>\n<h3>Flickering lights<\/h3>\n<p>If you notice that your lights flicker when you&#8217;re using appliances that use a lot of power, like a dishwasher or fridge, then it could be that the socket wasn&#8217;t intended to use high-power appliances. You can solve this issue by updating your wiring or having work done to update the singular sockets.<\/p>\n<p>If the flicker in your lights isn&#8217;t associated with a particular appliance, you could have a problem with the conductors in the fuse box. If this is the case, call an electrician right away.<\/p>\n<h3>Arcing when you plug in appliances<\/h3>\n<p>If you notice a spark when you plug in an appliance, there could be a problem with your wiring or the fuse box. Don&#8217;t panic &#8211; it&#8217;s not necessarily an emergency, but you shouldn&#8217;t be seeing the spark in normal conditions. Don&#8217;t use that socket until you&#8217;ve spoken to an electrician who will advise you of the best course of action.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_250\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-250\" style=\"width: 290px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/electricians.anytrades.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/fire-service-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"fire service when an electrician isn&#039;t enough\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-250 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.local-quotes.co.uk\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/fire-service-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.local-quotes.co.uk\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/fire-service.jpg 564w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 300px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 300\/200;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-250\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uk.pinterest.com\/pin\/566538828100368636\/\">Image via Pinterest<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>When to call the fire brigade<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes there are some issues that indicate an emergency and you should call the fire service right away. These situations are very rare, but it&#8217;s best to be prepared in case they ever happen to you.<\/p>\n<h3>Prolonged sparking<\/h3>\n<p>If you notice sparking from an appliance or your fuse box, you&#8217;re going to need extensive electrical work done. But first, you should call the fire brigade as the sparks could cause a fire.<\/p>\n<h3>Burning wiring smell<\/h3>\n<p>You&#8217;ll know the difference between the smell of one of the kids burning the toast and burning wiring. It&#8217;s a very unpleasant smell, and if you smell it, call the fire service straight away.<\/p>\n<h3>Whenever you feel in danger<\/h3>\n<p>Although you shouldn&#8217;t waste the fire service&#8217;s time, an electrical fault could turn into a serious fire so if you are ever worried, make sure you call them. They are there to protect you and if they catch a small problem before it turns into a large one, you&#8217;ve saved them a job later on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most of us tend to forget about the electrics in our homes until there is a problem.
