Short circuit repairs in London: questions and answers
Is resetting the breaker a repair for a short circuit?
No. Repeatedly restoring a circuit with an unresolved fault does not fix the cause. The affected installation needs professional investigation before normal use resumes.
Can power be restored immediately after removing the faulty item?
The circuit may also have sustained damage. The electrician needs to verify the installation before deciding whether it can safely be returned to service.
What affects the quotation for short circuit repairs?
The circuits involved, access to wiring and whether the fault can be reproduced influence investigation time. A quotation should confirm the agreed investigation, repair and testing before work is arranged.
