Avoiding electric shocks!

We are all aware that an electric shock can be fatal or cause life changing injuries, but many of us under estimate how little electricity can take to kill.Many electrical items and accessories in your home or work place could be a potential risk, and it is essential to regularly check and keep an eye out for any defects.

Socket outlets and switches; what to look for:

  • Signs of thermal damage
  • Its hot to touch
  • Face plate cracked or damaged
  • Cracking sounds and sparks
  • Socket or switch not secure to the wall

There are some signs that an electrical appliance in your home is faulty or potentially dangerous, things to look out for are:

  • An appliance regularly trip the MCB / Fuse
  • Exposed wires or damage to the appliance flex
  • Your appliance shows signs of over-heating or is hot to touch
  • Sparks and crackling noises coming from the appliance

There are also potential electrical dangers that are not obvious and can't be seen, this is why it's recommended to get a qualified electrician to carry out periodic inspections in your home or work place.

Whether its getting the portable appliances tested or a full electrical installation inspection(EICR), we offer a complete inspection package.

!! Take Care When Selecting an Electrician !!

Many electricians in Bristol are simply not interested in the small jobs.They want the choice jobs and will drop you when a bigger,supposedly more lucrative project comes in.

Others advertise as electricians having no qualifications.They thrive on the basis that you don't understand what they do and as a result charging for shoddy,and often dangerous electrical work.

I set up Burridge Electrical to provide you with a quality service and provide you with exactly what you need from a qualified electrician.
