Frequently Asked Questions
When you’re settling in for a relaxed evening at home, an electrical emergency’s not what you need. Rather than trying to fix the problem yourself, get the peace of mind with professional assistance. By using the services of a qualified emergency electrician, the power will safely be in their hands. On Snupit you can find the best emergency electricians in Durban.
Can I use water to extinguish an electrical fire?
No. Water is dangerous when used to extinguish electrical fires as it’s a good conductor of electricity. If you pour water on an electrical fire, the water could give you an electric shock.
The best way to extinguish an electrical fire is by using a fire extinguisher. Bicarbonate of soda is an alternative if you don’t have a fire extinguisher at hand.
Is it dangerous if my circuit breaker continuously trips?
Potentially, yes. A short circuit could be the cause for recurrent tripping of your circuit breaker. This can also happen due to general wear and tear on the circuit breaker. Your circuit breaker should normally automatically switch off if this happens to avoid electrical fires.
How do I know if my circuit is overloaded?
- The circuit breaker trips often or fuses blow.
- The lights blink, dim and flicker.
- The plug socket buzzes, crackles or spits.
- There’s a burning smell from your plug socket or wall switch.
- You feel a slight shock when touching an appliance, plug socket or switch.
- Your wall plates are warm to the touch or appear discoloured.
Is it safe to use more than one extension cord?
Plugging two of the same extension cords together results in a reduced current capacity. This could lead to decreased voltage and overheating. Even though using joined extension cords creates extra length, they can cause fires when they’re not correctly used.
Make sure you don’t overload an extension cord or connect it to higher-wattage appliances than the cord is capable of handling. Extension cords should only be used temporarily and should be unplugged & switched off when not in use.
