No power anywhere in the home
Faults and urgent help
Find out why the electricity is off.
If your whole home or part of it has no power, describe what went off and when. We can discuss whether the problem appears to be inside your installation and what investigation would involve.
- Which circuits have lost power
- Whether the fault is inside the property
- What repair or further investigation is needed
An enquiry is not a confirmed appointment. We discuss the work and costs first.

Describe what you see
When might you need this service?
You do not need to diagnose the installation yourself.
One room or floor has no power
Power goes off without a clear pattern
Fire, smoke or immediate danger? Leave the area and call 112. If neighbours have no power too, check the grid outage first.
What the electrician checks01 02
Understand the work before you agree.
Check whether it is a wider outage
If neighbours also have no power, the fault may be on the public network. In the Netherlands, network faults can be reported to 0800-9009. If only your home is affected, tell us which parts still work.
A clear diagnosis before repair
A power failure has several possible causes. An electrician checks the installation and discusses the findings with you. Do not remove fuse box covers or work on wiring yourself.
For homes in the Netherlands
Understand which part has failed
If neighbours have lost power too, check the network outage before arranging work inside your home. For a problem only at your address, note which rooms still have power and whether a breaker or safety switch has tripped. Avoid opening the fuse box.
The fuse box is often called a groepenkast and the safety switch an aardlekschakelaar.

Questions about power failure at home.
You can call if your situation is different.
Does a power cut always mean a short circuit?
No. Several faults can cause loss of power. An electrician needs to investigate before naming the cause.
Do I need to know what caused the problem?
No. Tell us what stopped working, when it started and whether it affects a room or the entire property. Do not open the fuse box or try to repair exposed wiring yourself.
Is my online request a confirmed booking?
No. We contact you to discuss the job, expected timing, availability and costs. An appointment is confirmed only after you agree.
I rent my apartment. Who should I contact?
You can describe the problem to us, but also tell your landlord or property manager. For work in shared parts of a building, access and permission may need to be arranged.
What if the whole street has no power?
Check with neighbours. If multiple properties are affected, check the grid operator outage information or call the national fault line 0800-9009. For a fault inside your home, call us.
