Porcelain fuse blown again, or a knob-and-tube circuit that's finally failed? Leederville's 1920s cottages need someone who knows what's actually behind the plaster.

Trusted brands
Leederville's full of 1920s cottages that still have original knob-and-tube wiring or porcelain fuse carriers tucked into an old switchboard, and a lot of these fail without warning rather than giving you a slow decline you can plan around. That's exactly the kind of call that needs same-day attention, not a next-week booking.
We also see it constantly in Vincent Street shopfronts with a residence above — a fault in the shop's supply or in shared wiring between the two levels, which needs sorting carefully so trade isn't disrupted longer than it has to be.
It's also common in Leederville's studio and warehouse conversions to find wiring that was adapted for a previous use rather than properly redesigned for residential or studio load, and combined with parking pressure along the tram routes on Vincent Street and Thomas Street, getting a van close enough is its own small challenge we plan for.

In short
Electrician Perth answers Leederville calls in about 5 minutes and can usually get a licensed electrician to your cottage, shopfront or warehouse conversion the same day, often within the hour. We're used to Leederville's older wiring and previous owners' fuse wire fixes.
A blown fuse that won't stay reset, a burning smell near an old fuse box, exposed or brittle wiring insulation, or total loss of power in a cottage with an original switchboard are same-day or after-hours emergencies.
A single circuit that's simply overloaded by too many appliances at once, with no smell or heat involved, can generally wait for a standard weekday visit and a proper load review.

When you call, tell us whether your home still has its original switchboard with ceramic fuses — that changes what we bring and how we approach making it safe, since porcelain fuse carriers age and crack in ways modern circuit breakers don't.
For Vincent Street shopfronts we treat outages as urgent given the impact on trade, and we'll ask whether the residence above shares wiring or a switchboard with the shop, which is common in older mixed-use buildings.

A licensed electrician does the work to AS/NZS 3000, tests every circuit and leaves your place cleaner than they found it.
One of the most common things we find in Leederville's older homes is fuse wire that's been replaced with the wrong gauge, or with something that isn't fuse wire at all, by a previous owner trying to stop a fuse blowing repeatedly instead of finding the actual fault.
That kind of fix removes the very protection the fuse is there to provide, and it's a genuine fire risk we take seriously — replacing it properly, and finding out why the circuit was overloading in the first place, is standard practice for us.

It can be, particularly once insulation has degraded or it's been added to over decades without proper review. We assess its condition on the day and advise honestly on what needs immediate attention versus what can be planned as an upgrade.
A fuse that blows repeatedly is telling you there's a genuine fault or overload on that circuit, not a faulty fuse. Replacing the fuse without finding the cause just delays the problem, and if the wrong-gauge wire has been used previously, it can mask a real fire risk.
Yes, seven days a week. We answer in about 5 minutes and can usually have a licensed electrician on site the same day, often within the hour for genuine emergencies, working around Vincent Street and tram-route parking.
If there's fire, smoke or anyone's been shocked, call 000 first. Once it's safe, call us on 0405 422 079 and we'll get a licensed electrician out to isolate the circuit and make it safe.
