When numerous houses lose power, the issue is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the energy business to deal with, 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 confirmed that you paid your electrical costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got an issue only an experienced electrical expert can solve.
Never a good indication. Disconnect whatever attached to that outlet. Turn the breaker to shut off power to the outlet and call us right now.

Buzzing noises from the breaker box are another indication of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can trigger a fire. To some individuals, that might sound more like a humming noise.
No matter how you perceive the sound, it is normally a sign of a breaker that's declining to trip. Breakers are supposed to trip when the circuit overheats.
