Short-circuiting is a common problem. When you have a short circuit, you can no longer use electricity. Generally speaking, only the fuse that blew the circuit breaker for the affected group of fuses, and not the entire house. Being without electrical equipment is not only very annoying, but for some appliances it can have consequences for, for instance, the freezer, the refrigerator or the central heating boiler. This is a job you want done as soon as possible.
