@loutsoul13 Hello! I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by giving out electricity. Could you maybe be more specific or give an example? You can turn all the lights off in live mode by clicking on any light and choosing turn off or auto lights. With auto lights, you get the option for just one room or all lights. When you select auto lights, they will only turn on when a sim (human or pet) enters a room. If you want to change the lighting set up, just click on any light again and choose the options you want.
The cooker, fridge—- go broken… it gives out this electricity charge.. wonder if there’s a cheat for it? To turn it off… my sim died because the electricity charge…

Ah, you mean it was broken and your sim got killed because you two times in a row tried to repair it. When your sim is already zinged you should not attempt to repair it again until the effect wears off. You can order a repair man on the phone. Have your sim build up handiness with other things. Using the workbench is recommended.
@loutsoul13 Oh no! That's terrible :-( I agree with what @jpkarlsen said. Another way for your sims to start gaining handiness skill is by having your sims read a book about Handiness. They can read Handiness Vol. 1 at the Willow Creek library without having to pay anything. You can get your sims' Handiness skill to around level 3 or 4 just by reading the first volume. That should be enough to tackle repairs when things break and lessen the chance of electrocution.
Many thanks—- lucky I didn’t save over my game…so the ghost will have to hold off -for the moment…

@loutsoul13 Yeah, if your Sim gets dazed from trying to repair an electric, you should never try to fix again until the moodlet wears off and they're not dazed any more. Send them to take a nap until it's gone!
Is there a cheat to turn of the electric-missfunction?

Things break unless they are unbreakable. When you buy something you can see that some of the more expensive say "Unbreakable". With enough handiness you can upgrade others to become unbreakable.
Great stuff—- have to unlock the functions… many thanks
@loutsoul13 There is no cheat to upgrade appliances, as far as I know. Although, there are cheats to increase skills, like handiness, as well as a cheat for adding a "Handy" trait that makes it easier to fix and upgrade appliances. See the spoiler below if you're interested.
SpoilerTo cheat the handiness skill:
stats.set_skill_level Major_Handiness X(replace X with whatever number is the next level; so if your sim has level 1 skill, use stats.set_skill_level Major_Handiness 2 and then 3 and so on)
To give your sim the Handy trait:
traits.equip_trait TheKnack(Handy Sims can instantly Fix and Upgrade any object.)
By the way, if you want a fairly extensive list of cheats, search for Sims Online Cheats. I use this site all the time because it's easy to navigate as well as copy / paste. They also include some tips and tricks.
