Is your electrical problem an emergency situation?

Should you wait? Or should you call right now? Here's how to tell:

Your home is the only one on your street without power = emergency

When lots of houses lose power, the issue is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the utility business to work on, and there's not much we can do about it.

When you're the just one without power, that's an indication something's gone wrong on your end. If you flip the breakers and validated that you paid your electric costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You've got an issue only an experienced electrician can fix.

You smell something burning, or you see brown marks on your outlets = emergency situation

Never a good sign. Unplug whatever connected to that outlet. Flip the breaker to turn off power to the outlet and call us right away.

Older outlets are especially vulnerable to becoming fire dangers. Loose screws, loose wiring, rust, and used metal all can cause heat accumulation. At least, the outlet needs to be changed. You'll desire us to identify whether there are other problems in your system that could trigger comparable risks.

Often you'll see the outlet spark up. The spark will come and go rapidly, but don't ignore it! One small spark now can start one lethal fire later on.

Your circuit box is hot = emergency situation

That might be a hard one to capture, because the majority of people do not interact with their circuit box very much on a daily basis. But if you do take place to see heat originating from your service panel it is essential to call us right away. Again, that's is a fire waiting to take place.

Think it or not, this one typically isn't a hard fix. It suggests a bad breaker or a loose wire. However in some cases it suggests a much more severe problem. A specialist needs to make that assessment.

Your electrical box is singing to you = emergency

Buzzing sounds from the breaker box are another sign of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can trigger a fire. To some individuals, that may sound more like a humming sound.

No matter how you view the sound, it is normally an indication of a breaker that's refusing to trip. Breakers are supposed to trip when the circuit gets too hot. Your wiring is handling heat and power loads it was never meant to deal with if the breaker is stopping working to do its job. Turn off all power and call us right away.

The breakers keep tripping = emergency situation

This means among 3 things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you have got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. A number of components of your electrical system may have gone wrong to produce those issues.

The first is relatively harmless, but it's a tip your system requires an upgrade. That is specifically true in older houses, which aren't indicated to run almost as numerous electronic devices as we now count on every day. The second two are incredibly unsafe, and require attention right now.
