What to do in an Electrical Emergency
If someone is in contact with electricity do not touch them as this could also cause you to be electrocuted. Immediately turn off the power supply at the main switch. If you are unable to do this or locate the main switch, push the person in contact with the electricity away from the supply with something which does not conduct electricity for example a wooden broom handle.
Call for an ambulance and administer first aid if required.
Most domestic electrical emergencies do not involve persons in contact with the electrical supply, but are caused when the safety features (RCD's or MCB's) cut off the supply or "trips". Before calling an electrician unplug all the appliances and turn off all the lights, reset the device (RCD or MCB) and slowly replug appliances. check to see that it is not a bulb that has blown and needs replaced.
Handy Hint: keep a torch handy for emergencies at night and remember to test the batteries on a regular basis
