Does anyone know an emergency / 24 hour electrician who is available this evening as we have lost our electricity.
We're located in Pueblo Bravo. Any ideas/suggestions/assistance gratefully received.

Hi. When you say you have lost it, are you able to tell if the mains power is still available at your electricity meter outside?
If it isn't, then you will need to contact your supplier. It could be a temporary loss to your street etc.
If the power is still on at your meter then you need to check that all the circuit breakers are switched on in your fuse box inside your home next.
Sorry if this sounds a little obvious but I don't know how much you know about this kind of stuff etc. I'm not in Spain just now but if I can help a little via this forum it's no problem.

It's complicated by the fact that we are on a new build awaiting our meter to be installed so we are running off the builder's supply, so we have no meter.
We lost electricity last Sunday and luckily the builder got back and called in Homeserve who fixed the problem at cost.
However sods law it's weekend again and the electricity has gone again and I can't raise the builder :(

Thanks.
We've been here two months with no issues and thought last Sunday was just a one off but unluckily two weekends running when no builder around the power has gone again.
We've managed to contact a sparky who is on his way so fingers crossed.
