Should you wait? Or should you call right now? Here's how to tell:
When many houses lose power, the issue is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the energy business to work on, and there's not much we can do about it.
But 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 electric bill this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got an issue only a skilled electrical expert can fix.
Never a great sign. Unplug whatever attached to that outlet. Flip the breaker to switch off power to the outlet and call us immediately.
Older outlets are particularly vulnerable to becoming fire dangers. Loose screws, loose wiring, rust, and worn metal all can cause heat buildup. At least, the outlet needs to be replaced. You'll desire us to determine whether there are other issues in your system that might trigger similar dangers.
In some cases you'll see the outlet spark up. The spark will come and go rapidly, however don't ignore it! One little trigger now can begin one fatal fire later on.
That might be a difficult one to capture, since most people don't communicate with their circuit box very much on a daily basis. But if you do occur to notice heat emanating from your circuit box it is essential to call us right now. Again, that's is a fire waiting to occur.
Believe it or not, this one normally isn't a hard fix. It signifies a loose wire or a bad breaker. Sometimes it's a sign of a far more serious problem. A specialist needs to make that assessment.
Buzzing sounds from the breaker box are another indication of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can cause a fire. To some people, that might sound more like a humming noise.
Regardless of how you perceive the noise, it is normally an indication of a breaker that's declining to trip. Breakers are expected to trip when the circuit overheats. Your circuitry is managing heat and power loads it was never suggested to deal with if the breaker is stopping working to do its task. Shut down all power and call us right now.
This means one of 3 things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you've got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. Several aspects of your electrical system may have failed to produce those issues.
The first is fairly harmless, but it's a tip your system requires an upgrade. That is especially true in older homes, which aren't suggested to run nearly as numerous electronics as we now depend on every day. The second two are very hazardous, and need attention immediately.
