Power Point Not Working? Dead Sockets Fixed Fast

Whether it’s a single dead outlet in the kitchen or half the house has lost power, faulty power points are more than just an inconvenience—they can be a fire hazard.

Common Reasons Power Points Fail

Tripped Safety Switch

If multiple outlets are dead, check your switchboard. An RCD trip usually means a faulty appliance or moisture in the line.

Loose Internal Wiring

Over years of use, the wires behind the wall can pull loose from the terminal, causing the outlet to stop working entirely.

Burnt Out Terminals

Smell burning or see brown marks? This is "arcing." It occurs when the socket can't handle the load, creating dangerous heat.

Broken Internal Mechanism

The physical switch inside a power point can wear out and snap, preventing the circuit from closing and providing power.
