What does an electrician do?

Electricians replace sockets and switches, install ceiling lights and lighting, renew fuse boards, fit residual current devices (RCDs), find faults and rewire homes. Running a new circuit for an appliance, doorbells, intercoms and in some cases satellite or internet cabling can also be part of the job.

A simple socket replacement is quick, while rewiring an older apartment can take a few days. Stating the type of job and the age of the building in your request helps the electrician come prepared.

Why do electrical faults happen, and when should you call an electrician?

Breakers that trip often, sockets that get hot or blackened, a burning smell, flickering lights and appliances that give a slight shock when touched can all point to a problem in the wiring. The cause may be overload, loose connections, old cables or damp.

Putting these signs off increases the risk of fire and electric shock. If you notice a burning smell or sparks in particular, contact an electrician without delay.

Safety: what you can do yourself

If a socket sparks, smokes or smells burnt, switch off the relevant breaker or, if needed, the main switch, and unplug appliances. Do not touch the wiring with wet hands, and do not try to use an appliance that has been in contact with water.

Do not remove fittings or change connections on mains electricity yourself. For the safety of people and property, electrical work should be left to a competent pro.

What affects the price, and how do you choose a good electrician?

The price depends on the type of job, the quality and quantity of materials, whether walls need to be opened and how long it takes to find the fault. The brand and standard of materials such as cable size, breakers and relays also affect the cost. Asking for labor and materials to be listed separately in the quote makes comparison easier. If the location of a fault is unknown, it is normal for the electrician to inspect first and then give a firm price.

Read the reviews of the pro's previous jobs and ask whether they have done similar work before. Asking whether they hold documents such as a vocational qualification certificate gives you an idea of their competence.

Agree the scope of work, the materials and the price in writing. Ask whether they give a labor warranty and ask for an invoice (fatura) after paying. If the service turns out to be faulty, remember you have rights under Turkey's Consumer Protection Law No. 6502.

When should old wiring be renewed?

In buildings wired many years ago, the installation may not be designed for today's appliance load. In homes where powerful appliances such as air conditioners, ovens and washing machines run at the same time, breakers tripping often can mean the circuit capacity is not enough.

Adding a residual current device to a fuse board that lacks one is an important safety measure against electric shock. Having an electrician check the wiring tells you which jobs to prioritize.
