Electrical Emergency Procedures

Here are a few general guidelines about what you should do in the event of an emergency and you need an out of hours electrician:

Water conducts electricity so never pour water on an electrical fire; use ABC fire extinguisher only. If possible, disconnect the power source and immediately call our 24 hour electrician.

Always keep a safe distance (at least 10 meters) between you and any downed power lines. Remain inside your vehicle and call our emergency electrician if a live downed power line should fall across your vehicle.

Electrical Emergency FAQ’s

An electrical emergency can be anything electrical that poses a risk to the safety of your home and family and may include exposed electrical wiring, electric shock, breakers that keep tripping, or electrical fires, smoke, or the smell of burning wires. A power outage is not an electrical emergency.

Do not try to address the electrical emergency yourself. Always call a qualified electrician regardless of the day or time. Most electricians offer 24-hr emergency electrical services.

When you hire an electrician, generally, there are two fees, a flat service call fee plus an hourly rate (usually between $50 and $100 or more per hour).

For an electrical emergency call your local electrician. For a power outage in BC, call BC Hydro (1-800-224-9376).
