# Emergency call-out & make safe in Purley

> Emergency electrical call out in Purley isolates the dangerous circuit and leaves it off. On the Webb Estate the board that tripped is named.

An emergency visit in Purley makes the dangerous circuit safe and leaves it off. Where a house on the Webb Estate has more than one board, the board that tripped is the one written down.


## What a Purley emergency visit includes

Finding the dangerous circuit, isolating it and leaving it off, with a written note, is this price. On the Webb Estate the note names the board. A replacement board is not fitted on that call.
- Emergency electrician: from £80 an hour; from £80 an hour
- The shop is not switched off for a flat fault when the labels show they are separate.
- Extra sockets in a Laing house are not added on this call.
- A return visit to repair is booked from the note.

## What happens on the day

The dangerous circuit is found, switched off, and left off, and we note what we found. On the Webb Estate, where the supply is often split, the note names the board that actually tripped rather than the other cupboard. On the Brighton Road parades a fault in the flat is not cleared by switching off the shop, because the supplies should already be labelled apart. A socket fault in a Riddlesdown Laing house is left off. It is not treated as a rewire.

### Name the board that tripped

On the Webb Estate we open the board that went, and we write that board down. The other board is checked only far enough to show it was not the one that tripped.

### Do not silence the wrong premises

A fault in a flat above the Brighton Road parades is isolated on the flat's supply. The shop is left on if the labels show it is separate.

### Stop at safe

The dangerous circuit stays off. A new board for a leafy road house, or extra sockets in Riddlesdown, is explained and booked later if it is wanted.

## Questions about an emergency visit in Purley


### Will you replace a board on the leafy roads during the call?

No. A 1920s or 1930s board that needs replacing is written down. The call ends with the dangerous circuit off.

### How do you tell which Webb Estate board tripped?

By testing, not by guessing the cupboard. The supply is often split, and the note names the board that went.

### Will a flat fault shut the shop on the Brighton Road parades?

Not when the supplies are labelled apart. The flat's circuit is the one isolated. The shop stays on.

### Is a Riddlesdown socket fault a rewire?

No. The failed circuit in that Laing house stays off. New outlets, if they are wanted, are a later booking.

### Do you leave the circuit on if it seems fine later?

No. A circuit isolated as dangerous stays off until it is repaired. It is not put back so the house looks normal.
