Tripping breaker or no power in a Madrid flat

No power, no check-in.

If your home has lost power, we first establish whether it is a network outage, a building issue or a fault inside the property. When the fault is internal, we isolate the circuit, find the point causing the leak to earth and leave the consumer unit labelled and photographed.

Or call 623 80 71 99

What we usually find
  • The RCD trips when one appliance goes on: hairdryer, hob, water heater or air conditioning.
  • One part of the flat dead while the rest works.
  • Loose, burnt sockets or a disconnected earth.
  • Flickering light points or fittings that will not light.
  • An unlabelled consumer unit where nobody knows what each breaker protects.
What we do
  • Circuit-by-circuit testing to isolate the fault.
  • Replace sockets, switches, lamp holders and fittings.
  • Replace faulty breakers and RCDs.
  • Label the consumer unit for cleaners and guests.
  • Photo report if the installation needs larger works.
What to do until we arrive
  • From a safe place, check whether the common areas or neighbouring homes also have no power; for a general outage, contact the network operator.
  • Unplug the last appliance in use and reset the RCD.
  • If it trips again, leave that circuit off and use the rest of the flat.
  • Do not open the consumer unit.
  • Send us a photo of the unit with the breakers visible.

Frequently asked questions
Can you keep the flat usable if a part is missing?
In most cases yes: we isolate the faulty circuit and leave the rest of the flat working, clearly noted in the report.
Do you issue electrical certificates?
No. We do the repair and a documented diagnosis; if a certificate is required, we tell you exactly what to ask for.
What if the fault is in the building supply?
We check it and put it in writing with photos so you can raise it with the building association.
