About our work
24/7 emergency electrical response in Echuca and Moama
Hughes Electrical provides 24/7 emergency electrical response for homes and businesses across Echuca (VIC), Moama (NSW), Kyabram, Rochester and the wider Murray and Campaspe region. If you've lost power, your switchboard keeps tripping, you can smell burning, or anything else feels off — call us. We'd rather you ask than risk it.
We attend faults of all types: residential outages, commercial breakdowns that impact trading, industrial switchgear failures, storm damage, exposed wiring, hot water failures and air conditioning breakdowns during heatwaves. Whatever the issue, we make it safe first, then repair to Australian Standards.
Fully licensed (REC-36216 VIC, NSW-493590C) and insured. For non-urgent jobs that can wait for normal hours, the form below or our residential, commercial and industrial pages are the better starting point.
What we attend
Electrical emergencies we respond to
Power outages
Partial or full loss of power. We diagnose whether it's the supply, the switchboard or a downstream fault and get you back on.
Tripping switchboards
Safety switches that keep tripping, breakers that won't reset. We find the underlying fault and fix it, not just reset the trip.
Burning smells or sparks
Treat any burning smell, smoke or sparking from outlets or switches as an emergency. Isolate the power and call us immediately.
Exposed or damaged wiring
Damaged cables, exposed conductors or wiring exposed by storm or pest damage. We make it safe and repair to standards.
Storm damage
Lightning strikes, surge damage, fallen lines and flood-affected wiring. We assess, isolate and repair after storm events.
Air conditioning breakdowns
AC failures during heatwaves treated as urgent. We get systems back online fast — repair or temporary fix until parts arrive.
Hot water failures
Electric hot water systems that have stopped working. Element replacements, thermostat repairs and full system swaps.
After-hours faults
Faults outside business hours that can't wait. Available evenings, weekends and overnight for genuine emergencies.

Customer Reviews
What our customers say
“First-class job installing new power points for us. It isn't always easy to find tradies that turn up when they say they will — Jack does. Swift, comprehensive quotes and high quality work. Wouldn't hesitate to use him again.”
Dave Brown
“Jack came to our place at short notice at the start of seven 40-degree days in a row and got our AC working for us. The only guy who called us back. So much appreciated — don't hesitate to use him for your sparky needs.”
Rohan Keats
“We had Jack do a couple of smaller jobs and recently he fixed our air conditioning during very busy Christmas time. Reliable, trustworthy and communicative. Did a great job and we will definitely use his services again.”
