Urgent electrical fault assistance when safety cannot wait
Wattle Spark Electrical provides 24/7 emergency electrical fault service across our Western Sydney coverage area. We prioritise attendance based on urgency and safety risk.
Life-threatening emergency
Call 000 first
If there is fire, smoke, serious injury or immediate danger, call 000. Do not wait for an electrician or rely on website information in an emergency.
This page is general safety information only. It does not replace emergency services or advice from a qualified electrician who has assessed the situation.
What may be urgent
Electrical problems that need prompt assessment
- Sparking, arcing or a burning smell from electrical equipment
- Exposed wiring, water near electrical components or a damaged switchboard
- A complete or partial power loss where an electrical fault is suspected
- A safety switch that repeatedly trips and will not reset
- A power point, switch or appliance connection that is unusually hot
Call us to discuss the fault. We will ask about the safety risk, your suburb and what you can safely observe.
While you wait
Keep clear and avoid making the fault worse
Do not use suspect equipment
Do not use switches or appliances that spark, smell burnt or feel unusually hot.
Only isolate if safe
Turn off the main power only if it is safe to do so. Do not approach a damaged switchboard or wet electrical equipment.
Keep people and pets away
Restrict access to the affected area and do not let anyone investigate wiring or fittings.

Emergency attendance
What to expect when you call
- 1. Safety questions: We first determine whether 000 is needed and assess immediate electrical risk.
- 2. Attendance priority: Emergency jobs are prioritised based on urgency and safety risk, not simply call order.
- 3. Clear pricing: The after-hours emergency call-out is $249 including GST. Parts, materials and additional labour are charged separately.
- 4. Work explained: We explain the findings and any next steps before proceeding beyond the initial assessment.
Not every problem is an emergency — but it still deserves attention
For routine repairs, lighting changes, switchboard inspections and planned electrical work, request a standard booking. Same-day appointments are available when capacity permits, and appointments are offered in two-hour arrival windows.
