The property is dark but the street has power.
Before anything else, work out whose fault it is. A dark street or dark neighbours means a supply fault, and that is Enemalta's to fix: its live outage map shows current faults. Your meter tells you the rest. A blank display means the supply is not reaching you. A lit display with a dark property means the fault is on your side of the meter.
On your side, the usual causes are a tripped main switch or RCD, a failed main switch, or a loose or burnt connection at the board or the meter tails. Several of those need an electrician to make safe.
Tell us what is happening and where. It reaches us marked as an emergency and goes to one CheckYourTraders-verified electrician, who rings you back.
