Electrician to fix protected power switch shorting after 4pm today

$200

Newtown NSW, Australia

26th May 2026

One of the protected power switches was triggered yesterday. I have unplugged all devices from the wall sockets and even switched each socket off manually in the affected rooms but I cannot switch the protected power switch back on. For context there may be a socket that has been affected in the wall by all the rain recently as this impacted a light switch in our wall about 2 years ago.. Need someone who can come out to Newtown to fix this afternoon. 4pm or later. Thanks.

Great guy, and he quickly figured out the issue and fixed it.
