However when you're the only one without power, that's an indication something's failed on your end. If you flip the breakers and verified that you paid your electrical costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got a problem only a skilled electrical contractor can resolve.

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 might sound more like a humming sound.
