Common Electrical Problems

Common Domestic Electrical Problems

Electricity Tripping Out

Do not make the mistake of constantly resetting your circuit breakers; our electrical engineers are experts in your fault finding and diagnosis. If a circuit often trips it could be the sign of faulty wiring or accessory (socket or switch) or even an issue with an appliance that may be causing a fault in your circuit.

Flickering Lights and Blown Bulbs

Flickering lights can be a sign of faulty wiring or loose connection issues. Do your lamps repeatedly blow? We find that the most common cause for this is as a result of using cheap supermarket lamps.  Karen & her electricians always use quality lamps from a branded manufacturer.

Light Switches or Sockets That Give a Small Electric Shock

If you receive a shock of any size from metal switches or sockets then call us immediately. It may be a sign of serious earthing issues.

Sparking Sockets or Switches

If you ever notice a spark when switching on a switch or a socket then it may be an early sign of a worn socket or switch (accessory) and if left unchecked can lead to an electric shock or even become a fire hazard.

Smell of Burning

A burning smell could be a sign of the start of an electrical fire. In the instance that an electrical accessory starts to overheat it will give off a distinctive and slightly fishy smell. If you ever think you might have an issue and can smell burning we cannot emphasise enough how important it is to switch off your electrics at the consumer unit and contact Bright Spark immediately..

Outdated Electrics

Several homes in Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Crowborough and the surrounding Kent and Sussex area were built over 100 years ago. Bearing this in mind, many of the electrics that come with the properties will be decades old. Due to these electrics being outdated, often a full rewire of the house will be necessary and replacement sockets may also be vital in order to ensure safety in the properties.

I have used Bright Sparks for two jobs and have been delighted with the quality of the work carried out. Karen is very knowledgeable in her subject and her staff are very well trained , courteous and hard working. I would highly recommend the company without hesitation.

You just saved us the biggest headache ever; after months of electrical problems ( now resolved), we had a ‘no power situation’. After checking circuit boards, switches etc we were at a complete loss. Read your piece above (after Googling ‘circuit board switches up, but no power‘) about RCD switch and resetting (didn’t know what an RCD was), and after 8 hours sleep dreaming of circuit boards and 2 minutes of contemplation, and re-reading your advice,I totally nailed it. Brilliant tutorial, many thanks. Susanne (I am neither young nor savvy with anything technical)

I just wanted to say how amazing your customer service is. You are the first (and only?) trade company that communicates and is efficient from my experience. I really appreciate texts, and emails giving me updates. It means I don’t have the frustration of having to stay in for the electrician all day and waste my time. You run an excellent service. Your electrician was great and very quick. We will definitely be using you again.
