water pipe leaked into fuse box
Anonymous user 01/03/2024 - 2.53 PM
This is short and sweet as I need an answer fast. At the top of my stairs a water pipe has bust and all the water has gone into fuse box which is straight underneath it on the kitchen wall.al9t of water cane through and flooded my kitchen. The fuse box tripped out straight away. Is it safe to turn back on or when will it be safe or will it even ever be safe or do I need an electrician?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

yes you need an electrician. He will need to open the fuse box at least to inspect for water damage and make sure its now dry, Do some insulation tests before switching back on.
