24 Hour Electricians Liverpool - How To Choose The Right Company

December 31, 2020

In a recent survey, the top three reasons choose an electrician to do their electrical work were to protect themselves from an emergency, to increase the reliability of their home, and to increase the value of their home. The reason for this is quite easy. If your electrician’s work is not completed correctly, they can cause damage to your home and you may end up having to replace it all. On the other hand, if the electrician does a great job and you have no problems with your electricity at all, they can be very loyal and work for many years with you. It is important that when you hire a local emergency electrician , that they are approved. It is good to make sure that your emergency electrician has the proper qualifications before they begin doing any work on your property. This will ensure that you are getting the highest quality service. Another reason that people choose to use an electrician in Liverpool is because they are happy with their service. Electricians hav

LED Lighting

December 03, 2020

LED Lighting We as electricians have recently started to see a rise in the number of installations using LED lighting, this type of lighting can offer up to 85% cost savings over traditional forms of lighting and is considerably 'greener' than traditional lighting methods. The biggest area we have seen is in the GU10 type of fitting, many homes/businesses having down lights installed and this is an area where major savings can be found, we recently converted a major restaurant to LED, having over 80 fittings within the installations they can expect to make massive savings over the coming years, and the light emitted is much smoother using a mixture of warm white lamps for the seating areas and cool white for the bar/foyer areas. The cost savings are the most obvious reason for installing this type of fitting in your home or business and I would almost certainly recommend anyone to install them for that reason alone. Also the prices of the actual lamps/fittings

Consumer unit upgrade How Much Does It Cost To Install a New Consumer Unit in Your Home or Premises Here is a guide to installation of a new consumer unit and what should be considered before you have any works carried out at your home. Installation of a new consumer unit There are many reasons to upgrade your consumer unit, maybe your existing unit is of the old rewire able fuses type (and is giving you constant headaches) or maybe you have a more modern type of consumer unit but you have no RCD (Residual Current Device) protection present in your property – more on that later.

December 13, 2012

Examples of Electrical Faults We Experience Daily At Orrell Electrics we offer an out of hours emergency call out service, usually no two faults are the same and we are going to include photographs of some of the more extreme electrical faults we come across on a day to day basis as we operate in the area of Liverpool, Merseyside, UK. Faulty main switch: Fire Risk Very Dangerous This particular fault we found to be very serious and there is one real reason for this - inferior goods. There has been an influx of cheap inferior consumer units flood the markets in the last few years and this is the result of using an inferior product, this installation was only a year old and how this did not ignite is a near miracle! Shower Pull Cords Melted Cables Cables too small This is an all too common fault, usually the shower stops working and the pull cord burning out is the first sign that the cable supplying the shower is too small.

Lighting your home in the winter

Outside Lighting Its nearly that time now when the dark nights are closing in and we as electricians start to receive a lot of calls regarding outside lights. It is at this time of year that people start to notice that their outside/security lights are failing. Well this guide will talk you through the various types of lighting that are available: Traditional Tungsten Halogen Fitting These are the most common of 'domestic' outside/security light fittings, usually they come fitting with PIR sensor and are reasonably cheap and you can usually expect to get 12 to 18 months use before they fail or start to blow bulbs. These fittings are usually supplied with 400w bulbs and are pretty average. Recently there have been newer versions of these fittings which will accept low energy bulbs and are more cost efficient long term. LED security lights These fittings are a relatively new concept and are a replacement for the traditional fitting but offer a ultra brig
