Before you say yes to an emergency call-out

  • Ask for the call-out fee and what it covers: after-hours rates, travel and the first half hour are often charged separately from the repair.
  • Check the licence: electrical work in Victoria must be done by a licensed electrician working for a Registered Electrical Contractor. Look the contractor up on Energy Safe Victoria's register. How to check a licence.
  • Get the certificate: electrical installation work needs a Certificate of Electrical Safety, and the electrician must give you a copy (Energy Safe Victoria).
  • Agree the scope: a make-safe visit tonight and the full repair later are often two jobs. Ask which you're getting.
