Hi, arrived yesterday and no electricity. Nothing. Not even tripping. Does anyone know an emergency electrician please?

Thanks

If your electricity has been cut off by the company, it's likely to be because of non-payment.

If you're not there permanently, it's a common issue.

They normally don't disconnect the cables. They usually just take out the main fuse in the fusebox and set it aside within the fusebox.

It happened to a neighbour. I just put the fuse back in place and bingo!

Speak to the electricity company.

Many thanks. Payments appear to be OK in the bank account. Thanks for the tip about the fuse. Will take a look 😁

You're welcome. While the payments have come out of your bank account, it doesn't follow automatically that the electricity company have credited those payments to YOUR account.

I speak from experience here.

I may well be wrong, but it's worth a look.

BUT TAKE CARE!!! There may not be an isolator switch.
