Should you wait? Or should you call right now? Here's how to tell:
When lots of homes lose power, the problem is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the utility business to work on, and there's very little we can do about it.
When you're the just one without power, that's a sign something's gone wrong on your end. If you turn the breakers and validated that you paid your electrical costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got an issue just a skilled electrical contractor can resolve.
Never a good indication. Unplug everything connected to that outlet. Turn the breaker to switch off power to the outlet and call us right now.
Older outlets are particularly vulnerable to becoming fire dangers. Loose screws, loose wiring, rust, and used metal all can cause heat buildup. At the minimum, the outlet needs to be changed. You'll want us to identify whether there are other problems in your system that might trigger similar dangers.
In some cases you'll see the outlet trigger up. The spark will come and go quickly, but don't ignore it! One small stimulate now can start one lethal fire later on.
That might be a tough one to capture, because many people don't connect with their circuit box quite on a daily basis. If you do happen to notice heat emanating from your service panel it's important to call us right away. Once again, that's is a fire waiting to take place.
Believe it or not, this one generally isn't a difficult fix. It signifies a bad breaker or a loose wire. But in some cases it suggests a far more severe problem. A professional needs to make that assessment.
Buzzing noises from the breaker box are another indication of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can cause a fire. To some individuals, that may sound more like a humming sound.
Regardless of how you perceive the noise, it is typically an indication of a breaker that's refusing to trip. Breakers are supposed to trip when the circuit overheats. If the breaker is failing to do its job, then your circuitry is managing heat and power loads it was never suggested to deal with. Turn off all power and call us immediately.
This suggests one of three things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you've got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. Numerous elements of your electrical system might have failed to produce those issues.
The first is reasonably harmless, however it's a tip your system requires an update. That is particularly true in older houses, which aren't indicated to run almost as numerous electronics as we now rely on every day. The 2nd 2 are exceptionally hazardous, and require attention immediately.
