As such, they may inadvertently use electrical wirings of the wrong size and length, which can seriously pose a potential danger to electrical appliances at home. To avoid such problems, only work with an experienced and licensed electrician in Singapore who are able to install wires with proper dimensions as set by local electrical authorities. Homeowners should also only work with electricians who have undergone the electrical installation course from recognised institutions in Singapore. Bright and working lights are essential to facilitate your Work From Home experience. If one or multiple lights are failing in your household, you can call an electrician to come down to help you install new light bulbs or even change your lights from fluorescent to LED for greater energy-savings for you. When your switch is not working, it is not recommended for you to try fixing it yourself since it involves working with electrical wires. And if you do not know how a light switch works, or know the electrical installation safety protocols, it is better to call an electrician to do it for you. We provide both the labour and materials needed for your electrical switch installation or replacement. We supply 1-gang to 4-gang light switches, dimmer light switches and water heater switches. Working from home with all family members in the household means you have to share a limited number of power sources between everybody.

All electrical appliances in your house like your lights, switches, power socket are run by electricity through electrical wiring to your circuit breaker and electrical distribution box. If you encounter any problems that are likely caused by your electrical wiring, our electricians will help to troubleshoot the root problem quickly and provide you a few recommendations for either electrical repair or replacement. If you experience frequent power trips or power failures, this would likely be your electrical wiring. Bad wiring, a faulty appliance with a high wattage than the fitting, or short circuits usually cause power sockets and electrical outlets to stop working. Overheating and overloading on power sockets or electrical outlets are not uncommon, but they shouldn’t be happening frequently. Otherwise, it should immediately be fixed by a certified electrician as it might lead to certain home hazards. Constant usage of electrical switches usually leads to wear-and-tear. While it is often unavoidable, it is important to get damaged electrical switches quickly repaired to prevent electric shocks when used. There are many reasons why a power socket might produce a spark. Short circuits, water exposure, age, and badly done repairs are just some of them. Make sure to get your power socket or electrical powerpoint installed by a professional electrician to avoid such potential dangers. Circuit breakers trip whenever overloading occurs, which is when a circuit carries a much heavier electrical load that it can hold. As a result, power failure happens and this turns off electricity in the entire house. An electrical power trip doesn’t just happen for no reason. There are several causes of power failures. However, it is important for one must narrow down the root or primary causes of the problem; why the tripping even occurs in the first place. Here are some reasons why power trips and power failures commonly occur: 1. Overloaded circuit This is usually the primary cause of the power trip and power failure. You have to understand that circuit breakers trip whenever there is a problem such as overloading. In this case, the circuit is carrying a much heavier electrical load that it can hold, and the only way to get itself off the excess load is to trip off the entire lighting in the house. Circuit breakers come with different ratings, which is what determines how much current that is allowed to pass through the circuit. Oftentimes, circuit breakers trip in order to protect your electric circuit from excessive heat. 2. Short circuit This one is even more serious compared to the Circuit overload causing an electric power trip as mentioned above. When a heated wire comes in contact or touches another heated wire or the neutral, a short circuit would then occur. A bleak in one or two wires in a circuit can also lead to a short circuit. It is very difficult to diagnose this problem because the issue could have come from a wiring problem in your house or from the wire of a device that you have plugged on the electrical grid. Power failure in Singapore can be resolved individually through the following means: 1. Resolving Overloaded Circuit problem It is clear that the reason why a circuit will always break is that too many items are plugged into just one or very few outlets linked to only one circuit. Therefore, if you have more than one power outlet in your house, try to move high current consuming items like driers, iron box, or heaters, to other circuits that are not much or heavily in use. You can also shut down any device that is not in use, and check on the various outlet wires to see if there is any loose one. Tighten anyone that is loose. 2. Resolve short-circuit power tripping problem There is not much difference here from the one mentioned above, except in this case; you will have to check out all outlet wiring insulation and see if any of them are cracked or broken, thereby coming into contact with the black or white wires. Remember to check for possible damages by switching off the power outlets and looking out for any signs of burning or melting. Also, remember to look out for any form of discolouration on those plugs. This way, you can resolve the power failure or electric power trip on your own.
