Electrical Fires 

Causes, Risks, and How to Stay Safe

Electrical fires are a major concern in UK homes. Faulty products cause 89% of these fires, while 11% come from installation issues or misuse. The good news? You can lower the risk by

​

  • Regularly checking your electrics

​

  • Using appliances safely

​

For more tips, see the Fire Factsheet from Electrical SafetyFirst.​​​​

​​

​

Top Products That Cause Electrical Fires

These everyday items are linked to nearly 12,000 fires and 3,000 injuries each year

​

  • Cookers and microwaves

​

  • Washing machines and tumble dryers

​

  • Lights

​

  • Portable heaters

​

  • TVs​

​​​​​​​

​​​

How To Prevent Electrical Fires

​

Things to Do

​

  • Get your electrics checked by a professional regularly.

​

  • Add more sockets if your outlets are overloaded.

​

  • Check appliances for damage and replace faulty ones.

​

Things to Avoid

​

  • Overloading sockets with too many devices, especially high power ones like kettles or heaters.

​

  • Running cables under rugs, which can cause overheating.

​

  • Using lightbulbs with the wrong wattage.

​​​​​​

​

Electrical Fires Are Not Just A Problem At Home

Businesses are at risk too. Over the past three years, 4,634 electrical fire callouts were made to UK businesses. That is 14% of all electrical fires.

​

While fires are less common in workplaces, safety laws like the Health and Safety at Work Act help. Regular checks such as PAT (Portable Appliance Testing) and fixed wire testing can make a big difference.

​​

​​​

What Causes Electrical Fires In Businesses?

Faulty equipment and appliances are behind 59% of fires. This often happens because businesses use IT equipment, kitchen appliances, and machinery for long hours.

​

Heating equipment caused 455 fire callouts in three years, especially during winter months. While cooking appliances like kettles, microwaves, and coffee machines led to 306 fires, even in workplaces with small kitchens.

​

While businesses face fewer fires than homes, the risk is still serious. Regular inspections help keep everyone safe. For more details, check out the full report in the Electrical times magazine.

​​​​

​​

When to Check Your Electrical Installations

Homeowners should get checks every five years or when moving into a new home. Look for the label near your fusebox for the last inspection date.

​

Tenants ask your landlord for the inspection certificate to ensure the system meets UK standards (BS 7671).

​​

​​​​

Warning Signs to Watch For

Hot or damaged sockets. If a socket feels hot or has burn marks, call an electrician immediately.

​

Overloaded sockets. Avoid using too many extension leads and consider installing additional sockets.

​

If you are worried about electrical fire risks in your home or business, contact us today. Our qualified electricians are available 24/7 to provide electrical inspections and emergency repairs.

Free Guide to Fixing Electrical Emergencies

What To Do If You Have An Electrical Emergency?

You may be able to fix the problem yourself. If your electricity keeps tripping, it could be the RCD. Try these steps

​​​​

1. Locate the RCD
Find it in your consumer unit. It may be labeled as RCD, RCBO, or Residual Current Circuit Breaker.

​​​​

​

2. Identify the Faulty Circuit
Turn off all circuit breakers except the RCD. Switch them on one by one. If the RCD trips, you have found the faulty circuit.

​​

​

3. Unplug Devices
Unplug everything connected to the problem circuit. Reset the breaker or replace blown fuses carefully.

​​

​

4. Test Each Device
Plug devices back in one at a time. If the circuit trips, the last device plugged in may be the issue.

​​

​

5. Check for Damage
Look for burn marks, loose wires, or signs of overheating. Check if the circuit is overloaded or if there is a burning smell from the consumer unit.

​​​​

If the RCD keeps tripping, call our qualified 24 hour emergency electricians in Liverpool.
At Ideal Electrical Solutions, we provide fast, reliable service to keep you safe and resolve any electrical issue.
