Answer a couple of questions. It tells you whether it is safe to try a reset, whether it is likely an Ergon fault, or whether you should ring Kelly now.
1Can you smell burning, hear buzzing or see scorching anywhere?
2Are the neighbours' lights and street lights off too?
3Look at the switchboard. Has a safety switch or breaker flipped down?
4Unplug everything on that circuit, then push the switch back up once. Did it stay up?
Do not touch the switchboard. Call now.
A burning smell or scorching means heat where there should not be any. Keep people away, and if you can safely reach the main switch, turn it off. If there is smoke or flame, call 000 first.
Call Kelly 0421 644 207Likely a network outage.
If the whole street is dark it is usually an Ergon Energy fault, not your wiring. Check Ergon's outage map or call their faults line. If Ergon says your street is fine, ring Kelly: it may be your service fuse, which he can find and log with Ergon for you.
Call Kelly 0421 644 207Could be the main fuse or the supply.
Nothing tripped but you have no power, so the problem is likely before the board: the service fuse or the supply. That needs a licensed electrician. Reviews describe Kelly arriving within the hour on weekends for exactly this.
Call Kelly 0421 644 207Sorted, for now.
Plug appliances back in one at a time. If the switch trips when a particular one goes in, that appliance is faulty. If it trips again later with nothing new plugged in, the circuit has a fault. Book Kelly to find it.
Book fault findingLeave it off and call.
A safety switch that trips with nothing plugged in is telling you current is leaking somewhere on that circuit. Do not keep resetting it. Kelly traces it and fixes the cause, not just the switch.
Call Kelly 0421 644 207“Called this bloke on a Saturday to come and help as our power in half the house had gone out. He not only offered to lower his callout fee which was less than i expected for a weekend to start with, but also pack up and leave a non urgent job to come quickly as our fridge and freezer were off. We realised the issue and got it sorted but when we rang back he had already packed up his job and would now have to unpack again. He was so good humoured and understanding about it. He just asked if we had any other issues to keep him in mind. Excellent manner and customer service. I have already put his name in my phone book as first to call with an electrical issue.”
“Our safety switch decided to fail on a Sunday morning. Did a google search and found Electrikell. Made a phone call and spoke to Kelly. He agreed to come out and arrived within an hour. Had the problem fixed within 2 hours of making call to him. Highly recommend. Thank you for your great service.”

“My electrical sub board burnt out and called Kell at Electrikell QLD, he was on time, whilst installing the new electrical sub board he also rectified some sub-standard electrical wiring done previously by another electrician. Good quote/price, good work and left the area clean. If needed will use Electrikell QLD in the future.”

“Needed a electrician, we had no electricity in part of our house and it was after 5pm on a week night. I found Electrikell on google (kelly) He was here withing the hour. He was amazing. Got us out of a jam he's rates are not over the top. He listened to our problem and found a solution. I can't rate Kelly enough. If anybody needs a electrician do call Kelly you will not regret. 100/100. Thanks Kelly.”

“Kelly signed up for extensive electrical modifications to a 100 year old house including rerouting 3 phase mains underground and complete modifications to one of three switchboards. He and Simon have removed and uograded decades old wiring and fuses that didn't meet any acceptable standards quickly, efficiently and with highest level of safety. I have more work to do in the future and Electrikell will be the only company I will be calling.”
