Electrician needed to fix shorting plug points & idoorbell wiring

$150

Altona North VIC, Australia

30th May 2026

Looking for an electrician to inspect and fix the following issues: 1. I have a water tank with a motor that is connected to an outdoor plug point. When the motor was turned on and used, it caused a power surge and shorted the appliances plug points and lights. Now everytime it gets plugged into the wall socket outside, it shorts the plug points and lights (even when the plug point switch is not turned on - I think). Shown in the first pic. 2. Unrelated to the above, In my under stair storage room, the right side of the double plug point now just turns on and off every 10 seconds or so when the switch is on. The left plug point appears to be working fine so not sure what’s causing this. Maybe the wall socket needs to be replaced as a whole or there is another issue. Second picture. 3. Unrelated to the above, I have a wired doorbell that has stopped working. Upon inspection, the doorbell unit indoor seems to have melted a bit, it must have had some sort of small fire. Please could you provide your quotes.
