What Qualifies as an Electrical Emergency?
Many homeowners wonder if their situation truly qualifies as an "emergency." If you’re unsure, here are some clear signs that you should call a licensed emergency electrician right away:
Common Emergency Scenarios:
- Complete power loss in all or part of your home
- Burning smell coming from outlets, panels, or appliances
- Buzzing, hissing, or crackling sounds from electrical equipment
- Visible sparks or smoke from outlets or breaker panels
- Breaker won’t reset and leaves rooms without power
- Water damage near outlets, lights, or your main panel
- Flickering lights across multiple rooms
- Repeated breaker tripping with no known cause
- Outlets or switches that are hot to the touch
- You see arcing (blue light or sparks) from cords or panels
If any of these occur—especially during off-hours—it’s safer and smarter to call a professional immediately. Waiting could result in fire, equipment damage, or serious injury.
What to Do Before Help Arrives
If you’re dealing with an electrical emergency:
- Do not touch any exposed wires or sparking equipment.
- Turn off the main breaker if it’s safe to access and not damaged or wet.
- Avoid using water near the affected area, especially if sparks or burning are present.
- Keep family members and pets away from danger zones.
- Call Bob’s Electrical immediately for a fast response.
If there's smoke, visible flames, or you feel unsafe, call 911 first. Safety always comes before service.

Can Emergency Electrical Repairs Be Prevented?
In some cases, yes. Many emergency calls result from older equipment, overloaded panels, or wiring issues that build up over time. Scheduling an electrical inspection or panel evaluation can help prevent breakdowns before they happen.
Consider preventive action if:
- Your panel is over 25 years old
- You use extension cords regularly for key appliances
- You’ve experienced frequent breaker tripping
- You smell burning plastic or notice dimming lights under load
- You’re planning to add high-draw appliances (EV charger, hot tub, etc.)
