Got the call late one night.
Customer had lost power to half the house lights out in some rooms, others still running. Main breaker deformed
When we pulled the switchboard open, this is what we found. 👆
The main breaker had failed and the cable feeding it had burnt through at the connection point. One phase completely gone and the damage was getting worse by the minute.
Left untreated, this kind of fault doesn't just stay inconvenient. It becomes a fire risk.
We replaced the main breaker, repaired the damaged cable, tested everything properly and had them back on full power before the night was out.
No drama. Just sorted.
This is exactly why we answer the phone after hours. Because some things can't wait until Monday morning.
If your power has been playing up — flickering, tripping, or acting strange — don't ignore it. Get it looked at.
