An electrical emergency is any fault that poses an immediate risk to safety, property, or electrical systems – such as sparking or smoking outlets, burning smells, frequent breaker trips, exposed wiring, power outages, or electric shocks. If you’re unsure whether an issue qualifies, it’s safer to call Statewide Sparkies. Our team is available 24/7 across Melbourne’s north and surrounding suburbs to assess any suspicious electrical activity.

If possible, turn off the power at your main switchboard to reduce risk. Do not touch fallen power lines, exposed wires, or anyone being electrocuted. Evacuate the area if there’s fire, smoke, or a burning smell, and call emergency services (000) when life is at risk. Once you’ve taken these steps, contact Statewide Sparkies on 0435 877 448 and we’ll arrive within the hour.
