WHAT HAS GONE WRONG?

Electrical problems
that need attention.

You don’t need to diagnose the fault before calling. Describe what you noticed and what stopped working.

01

Your room has no sockets but the kitchen works

Describe which rooms lost power and what was running beforehand. Separate circuits can behave differently, so working kitchen lights do not prove the fault belongs to your appliance. Leave failed equipment unused until it can be checked.

02

The power trips when hot water is needed

Tell us if tripping seems to coincide with the geyser or hot-water timer. You do not need to reach the roof space or try the switch again. Report any leak you can already see without going near wet electrical equipment.

03

A fault has followed a recent move

Pass on the outgoing occupant’s original message if there is one, and add your own observations separately. A recurring symptom deserves investigation even when somebody previously managed it by leaving a particular socket or circuit unused.

Know the charge
before the visit.

Ask whether the initial charge includes testing more than one affected room. If the landlord must approve repairs, have that contact available so a decision about parts or further work does not depend on an unanswered message.

URGENT ELECTRICAL REPAIRS

Make sure the fault is explained to the people living there

In a shared rental, the person who books the electrician may not be there when the work finishes. Agree who will receive the findings and pass on any instruction to keep equipment unused. A repair note should explain the affected circuit and any remaining work. This helps avoid another occupant restoring power to something that has been left off for safety.

Talk to Wesslink about the fault

BEFORE YOU BOOK

Is it one property
or a wider outage?

A dark home or shop does not by itself identify the fault. The incoming supply, shared equipment and private wiring are different possibilities.

Other properties are also off

Check official outage information with the supplier named on your account. In a complex or centre, ask management about the shared supply.

Only part of your property is affected

Tell Wesslink which rooms or equipment lost power. Mention backup power and any burning smell, sparking or shock. Don’t recreate the fault to show us.

ELECTRICAL HELP · Ruimsig

A rental fault needs more than a message to the previous tenant

If you rent in Ruimsig, including in accommodation near the Peter Road campus, keep your landlord informed about an electrical problem. In a shared house, ask occupants to pass on what they already noticed and which rooms are affected. Nobody needs to inspect wiring or reproduce the fault to provide a useful report before the visit.

Have these details ready

  • Exact street and room or unit number.
  • Symptoms from the occupants who actually noticed them.
  • Landlord contact and any previous repair note.

Questions
before you call.

Practical answers about urgent electrical faults and repairs.

Can I book for a student staying in Ruimsig?

Yes, discuss the address and access with Wesslink. Arrange a local person to meet the electrician and identify who may authorise the work, rather than assuming the tenant can approve every repair.

Should I just move my appliances to another room?

Do not use an extension lead as a workaround for a suspect circuit. Tell the electrician which equipment you need; the installation needs checking before another connection is treated as safe.

Will the landlord need to be present?

That depends on access and approval arrangements. A responsible person can often meet the electrician while the landlord remains available by phone, provided this has been agreed before the visit.

What should I do if there is smoke, sparking or a burning smell?

Keep everyone away from the affected equipment. Do not touch suspect switches, wet electrical fittings or exposed wiring. If there is a fire or immediate danger, leave the area and contact emergency services. Tell Wesslink what you noticed from a safe distance.

Does an emergency call-out have a fixed price?

The charge depends on attendance, testing and the repair required. Ask about the call-out fee, any after-hours charge and how further labour or parts will be approved before you book. Availability is confirmed when you contact us.

Does a power cut at one property prove the wiring is faulty?

No. A fault can involve the incoming supply, meter, shared building equipment or private installation. Tell us what still works and whether neighbouring properties are affected. Do not open a board or repeatedly reset a tripping breaker to investigate.
