What Counts as an Electrical Emergency?
These situations require an immediate call. Do not wait until morning:
Sparking or Arcing
Visible sparks from outlets, switches, or your panel are an immediate fire hazard.
Burning Smell
An electrical burning smell with no visible source often means wiring is overheating inside a wall.
Complete Power Loss
Total power loss when your neighbors still have power, especially if it can't be explained by a tripped main breaker.
Exposed Wiring
Wiring that has been damaged, cut, or is exposed, from storms, pests, or construction accidents.
Flooding Near Panel
Water in or near your electrical panel or service entrance is an immediate electrocution hazard.
Buzzing in Walls
Crackling or buzzing sounds from walls or the panel are the sound of arcing. Don't ignore it.
What to Do Right Now
- 1 If you see smoke or flames, leave immediately and call 911. Do not try to address an electrical fire with water.
- 2 Keep everyone away from the affected area, panel, or outlets.
- 3 Do not reset sparking or smoking breakers. Do not touch exposed wires.
- 4 Call Spark Doc Electric at (913) 390-3780. Call to ask; we help when available.
Is It an Emergency or Can It Wait?
Not sure? Call us anyway. Bobby will help you sort it. As a general guide:
Call now for urgent issues: sparking or arcing at the panel or outlets, burning smell, smoke, total power loss when neighbors still have power, exposed live wires, water in or near the panel, crackling in the walls.
Book a next-day diagnostic: a single dead outlet, flicker in one room, a breaker that resets and holds, lights out in one area with no smell or sparking. Start on our electrical troubleshooting page or book online.
