Electrician in Alicante: faults, consumer units and installations
Most Alicante homes were designed for an era without air conditioning, without induction hobs and without electric cars. The board trips when two appliances coincide, and that is not a defect: it is an installation that has run short.

5/5
In the Ensanche and centre buildings, stretches of wiring from several decades sit spliced on top of one another. Before adding load, someone has to see what is behind the wall, not afterwards.

Why choose Manitas in Alicante
Access priced into the quote
In the centre you park a long way off and carry everything up narrow stairs. We count that at the survey rather than turning it into an extra on day one.

Fixed quote after the survey

Capacity checked before you buy
We tell you whether your installation will carry the appliance before you buy it, not once it is sitting in the living room.

Frequently asked questions
The power trips when I run two appliances, what is it?
Almost always insufficient contracted supply or a board with the circuits poorly split. We check and tell you whether rearranging is enough or an upgrade is needed.
Can you issue the electrical certificate?
Yes, where the installation complies. If it does not, we tell you what is missing before processing it, not after charging for it.
I want a charging point in the community garage, is that possible?
In most cases yes. There is a procedure with the community and a check of the garage installation. We look at it during the survey.
Do you handle emergencies?
Yes, for supply failures and faults that leave a property without power, with a same-day call-out inside the city.
