Emergency Electrician Singapore
About FixMove — FixMove Singapore runs a same-hour emergency electrician service for total power failure, sparking or burnt sockets, exposed live wire and a DB board that won't reset, with EMA-licensed technicians and a callout fee confirmed before dispatch. We respond within about 30 minutes for genuine electrical emergencies across Central, North, South, East and West Singapore — HDB, condo and landed.
Some electrical faults can't wait for a weekday appointment — a burning smell, a tripped board that won't reset, or a live wire near water is a real shock and fire risk. Our emergency electrician in Singapore is on call 24/7 to make it safe first, then quote the repair before any work begins.
When to call an emergency electrician
Total power failure
Whole home dark and the main breaker won't hold — we trace the fault and restore power safely.
Sparking or burnt socket
Scorch marks, buzzing or a burning smell from an outlet — isolated and replaced before it spreads.
DB board won't reset
RCCB keeps dropping or an MCB won't stay up — we find the faulty circuit instead of forcing it on.
Exposed or wet wiring
Bare live wire, a damaged cable, or water reaching electrical points — made safe on the spot.
Shock from an appliance
A tingling fridge, heater or metal fitting points to an earth fault — diagnosed and corrected.
After-storm electrical faults
Surge damage, tripped circuits or flooded points after heavy rain, restored and tested.
Before we arrive — make it safe
- Smell burning or see sparks? Switch off the main breaker at the DB box and don't touch the affected socket.
- Live wire near water? Keep everyone clear, do not touch it, and cut power at the main if you can reach it safely.
- Board won't reset? Turn every circuit off, flip the main back on, then restore circuits one at a time — leave the one that trips off.
- Whole block dark? It may be an SP Group outage — check with neighbours and report at 1800 778 8888 before calling us.
- Send a photo of the DB box or the affected point on WhatsApp so we arrive with the right parts.
