Overview

A dedicated emergency phone line

Electrical faults that pose a safety or business-continuity risk get priority dispatch, subject to technician availability and the nature of the fault. WhatsApp and DM replies are available around the clock; we are not currently offering 24/7 emergency call-outs. This isn't a general contact line. It's a dedicated emergency response service for genuine electrical hazards and critical outages.

Burning smells from outlets, panels, or fittings
Sparking outlets, switches, or panels
Exposed or damaged live wires
Overheating cables, panels, or equipment
Switchboard and distribution board faults

Who we serve

Homes, businesses, and industrial sites

Residential

Homes wired for Nigeria’s real grid conditions, for years after the inspection.

Commercial

Offices and retail fit-outs, where an electrical fault costs you trading hours.

Industrial

Factory and plant electrical infrastructure where downtime is measured in lost production.

Hospitality

Hotels, restaurants, and event venues where guests never see the electrical system, only whether it works.

Education

Schools and training facilities where a power failure stops lessons.

Healthcare

Clinics and healthcare facilities where backup power isn’t a convenience, it’s a patient-safety requirement.

Retail

Shops and showrooms where lighting quality and uptime directly affect the customer walking through the door.

Banking & Finance

Bank branches and financial institutions where a power fault stops transactions.

Telecommunications

Telecom infrastructure sites where an outage doesn’t just cost one building, it cost everyone connected to it.

Oil & Gas

Energy sector facilities where electrical faults carry safety stakes well beyond the immediate equipment.

Manufacturing

Factories and industrial plants where unplanned electrical downtime can stop the whole production line.

Scope of work

  • Priority dispatch for genuine hazards
  • On-site fault diagnosis
  • Temporary safe isolation where required
  • Permanent repair or scoped follow-up work

How this work comes together

  1. Priority dispatch

    Call or message triaged and, where an on-site visit is needed, a technician dispatched, subject to availability.

  2. On-site diagnosis

    Fault identified on site, where it can actually be tested.

  3. Safe isolation

    Hazardous circuits or equipment isolated immediately where required, to make the site safe first.

  4. Repair or follow-up

    Permanent repair carried out on the spot, or scoped as follow-up work where the fix needs more than an emergency callout allows.

— Our process

From call to safe again

Four steps, in order. Safety comes first, the repair comes second.

Step 01:

Call or WhatsApp

Reach us on +234 814 020 5895 or WhatsApp. For anything involving fire, smoke, or shock risk, call the fire service first if needed, then us.

Step 02:

Safety triage

We walk you through immediate safety steps over the phone if needed - switching off the main supply, keeping clear of the affected area, not touching exposed conductors.

Step 03:

Dispatch & diagnosis

Where an on-site visit is needed, a technician is dispatched to diagnose the fault, subject to availability.

Step 04:

Repair or safe isolation

Where a full repair can be completed safely on the spot, it is. Where the fix requires parts or scoped follow-up work, the area is made safe first and a repair is scheduled.

Fire, smoke or shock risk? Call the fire service first if needed, then us.

Technical considerations

What to know before we arrive

Isolate the power. Leave the investigating to us.

A tripped breaker or blown fuse is a protective device doing its job - repeatedly resetting it without diagnosing the cause risks re-energizing a fault. Isolating the circuit (or the main supply, if the fault location isn't obvious) and waiting for a technician is safer than testing it yourself.

Burning smells don’t always trace to the obvious source

Heat and smell can travel along cable runs and through wall cavities, so the smell’s location isn’t always the fault’s location. Finding it properly takes thermal and circuit testing. Looking around isn’t enough.

Water and electricity: isolate before you approach

Flooding or a roof leak near electrical equipment is treated as live until proven otherwise. Do not enter standing water near a panel or outlet, and isolate supply at the main switch if it can be reached safely.

Common questions

Do you offer 24/7 emergency call-outs?

We are not currently offering 24/7 emergency call-outs. WhatsApp and DM replies are available around the clock, so message us at any hour. For active hazards (sparking, burning smell, exposed live wiring), switch off at the main supply if it is safe to do so and contact us right away at +234 814 020 5895 rather than submitting the contact form.

What counts as an electrical emergency?

Active hazards: sparking, a burning smell, exposed live wiring, or total power loss affecting safety-critical equipment. Recurring tripped breakers or a warm panel cover are worth calling about too, even if not urgent the same hour.

Is there an emergency contact outside business hours?

WhatsApp and DM replies are available around the clock, so you can reach us outside business hours on WhatsApp or by DM. You can also email emergency@kellelectricals.com. We are not currently offering 24/7 emergency call-outs.

Prefer to talk it through first? Call +234 814 020 5895 directly.
