After-hours electrical help across the Northern Beaches

Palms Electrical provides emergency support for faults such as power loss, repeated tripping, sparking, burning smells and storm damage, with Level 2 capability available when the issue involves the incoming supply or network-side equipment. The priority is to make the property safe, identify the source of the fault and restore power where possible before any further repair work is planned.

Who We Are

Local Electricians Who Answer

We're Palms Electrical, a team of licensed and Level 2 accredited electricians serving the Northern Beaches. When you're dealing with an electrical emergency, you don't want a call centre or a days-long wait, you want a local team who answers and responds fast. Being based on the Northern Beaches means we can get to you quickly, and being Level 2 accredited means we can handle whatever the fault turns out to be, inside the home or on the network side.

Stay Safe

What Counts as an Electrical Emergency?

Some electrical problems can wait for a normal booking, but others genuinely can't. A burning smell or smoke from a powerpoint or switchboard, sparking outlets, a safety switch that keeps tripping, or a sudden total loss of power are all warning signs that something is wrong and potentially dangerous. These shouldn't be left. If you ever notice burning, smoke, or sparking, turn off the power at the switchboard if it's safe to do so, keep everyone clear, and call straight away. If a power line has come down, never approach it, assume it's live and call immediately. The advantage of calling an accredited Level 2 team is that we can handle both the inside-the-home faults and the network-side connection faults, so whatever the emergency, it's one call.

Our Most Urgent Call

Burning Smells, Sparking & Power Loss

The calls we treat as most urgent are burning smells, sparking, and sudden power loss. A burning smell or sparking from an outlet or the switchboard can indicate overheating or a failing connection, which is a genuine fire risk and needs immediate attention. A sudden loss of power, when your neighbours still have theirs, points to a fault on your side that needs diagnosing fast.

When you call, our first priority is always to make your home safe, isolating the danger before anything else, then we find the actual cause and repair it properly so it doesn't happen again. Because we're Level 2 accredited, if the fault turns out to be on the network side of your supply, such as a damaged service connection after a storm, we're qualified to fix that too. One call covers whatever's gone wrong.

How do I find an electrical fault in my Northern Beaches home?
