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

An office floor loses power during the day

Report whether lights, sockets or both are affected and which neighbouring areas appear to have supply. Tell facilities management as well as Wesslink. An occupied building may need a coordinated interruption before testing or repair work can be done safely.

02

A retail unit reports a burning smell

Keep customers and staff away from the affected area and notify the building’s responsible contact. Do not assume the issue is confined to a till or display because that is where it was first noticed. Existing warnings and observations can help the electrician.

03

Backup power has not restored the expected equipment

Describe what remains on and which system is known to provide backup. Do not operate unfamiliar changeover equipment or try to bypass a failed circuit. Generator, inverter and landlord supply arrangements need to be understood before further work is agreed.

EMERGENCY ELECTRICIAN COSTS · Sandton CBD

Know the charge
before the visit.

Parking, controlled access, testing restrictions and work outside normal building operations can affect attendance. Confirm the call-out charge and any conditions with Wesslink before booking. A private tenant’s quote should distinguish its repair from separately authorised work on the building supply.

URGENT ELECTRICAL REPAIRS

Make the repair handover useful to the next shift

A building may remain occupied after the person who booked the visit leaves. Ask for a clear explanation of the affected installation, work completed and any equipment that must stay unused. Pass this to the facilities contact and the next responsible person. Where a specialist or landlord action is still needed, identify that next step instead of reporting only that power has returned.

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 · Sandton CBD

Name the building and the affected floor

Sandton Central includes offices, hotels, retail and other managed premises in the CBD. A street address alone may not identify the faulty installation inside a large building. Include the tenant or apartment reference, the affected floor and the facilities contact, while explaining what people can safely observe without entering locked electrical rooms.

Have these details ready

  • Building name, floor and unit or tenant reference.
  • Facilities contact and contractor entry arrangements.
  • Affected equipment and known backup-power details.

Questions
before you call.

Practical answers about urgent electrical faults and repairs.

Can you go straight to the building’s electrical room?

Access must be arranged with the person responsible for it. Give Wesslink the facilities contact; an urgent call from one tenant does not automatically permit entry or work on shared equipment.

Does a working lift mean the rest of the supply is normal?

No. Different building services can have separate circuits or backup arrangements. Describe what is working, but leave the supply condition and necessary testing to the responsible electrical team.

Can repairs take place while customers remain in the unit?

That depends on the fault, working space and required isolation. Explain how the unit is occupied so safe arrangements can be discussed. Immediate electrical danger may require the affected area to be cleared first.

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.
