Choose the Right Help for Your Fault

Fire, smoke, electric shock injury or immediate danger: move to safety and call 999. Do not wait for Entigen, WhatsApp or an online triage response. Do not approach hot, wet, sparking or damaged electrical equipment.

Burning smell, heat, repeated tripping or water near electrics: stop using affected equipment and keep clear. Only switch off the supply if the switch can be reached safely without approaching the hazard. Do not remove covers, touch wiring or repeatedly reset protection. Arrange urgent professional help.

Power cut or supply problem

For a suspected network power cut or incoming-supply fault, call 105. A loss of power does not prove wiring is safe. For an internal fault, ask an electrician to assess it.

Contact Entigen

Planned work and normal office hours: Monday–Friday, 8:30am–4:30pm. Call 01536 645661 for urgent availability. WhatsApp Entigen or send a nonurgent enquiry; messages may not be read immediately.

Out-of-hours triage

The 24/7 Zapline triage route helps record an enquiry. It does not confirm an electrician is available. Attendance, timing, diagnostic charges and any further work must be agreed with staff.

From a safe position, tell us your postcode, what has stopped working, when it began and any danger signs. Photos are optional: never approach a hazard or remove a cover to take one. Share only relevant images; avoid people, documents and private information.

The website assistant records details for staff review. It cannot diagnose a fault, issue prices, reserve an appointment or dispatch an electrician.

What We Deal With

Common Electrical Emergencies We Handle

If it's electrical and it's urgent — we can help

Total or Partial Power Loss
Complete loss of supply or parts of the home losing power. We diagnose and restore safely, identifying the root cause rather than just resetting breakers.
RCD Constantly Tripping
A persistently tripping RCD indicates a real fault somewhere on the circuit. We pinpoint which circuit is affected and trace the fault to the source.
Burning Smells or Arcing
Burning plastic, visible scorching, or sparks from sockets or switches need immediate attention. Keep clear and seek urgent help. Only switch off the supply if safe to do so; for fire, smoke or immediate danger, move to safety and call 999.
Faulty Showers, Ovens & Immersion Heaters
High-load appliances tripping the board or not working at all. We check the circuit, connections and protective devices to restore safe operation.
Flood or Storm-Related Faults
Water ingress into fittings is an immediate electrical hazard. Do not touch affected fittings — we assess, make safe and document for insurance purposes.
Fuse Board Sparking or Overheating
A warm or sparking consumer unit is a serious hazard. Isolate the supply if safe to do so and message us immediately — this requires urgent attention.
