Is your electrical issue an emergency?

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

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

When numerous homes lose power, the problem is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the energy company to work on, and there's very little we can do about it.

But when you're the only one without power, that's a sign something's gone wrong on your end. If you flip the breakers and verified that you paid your electric costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You've got a problem only a skilled electrical contractor can resolve.

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

Never a great indication. Unplug whatever connected to that outlet. Flip the breaker to switch off power to the outlet and call us right now.

Older outlets are especially vulnerable to ending up being fire risks. Loose screws, loose wiring, rust, and worn metal all can cause heat buildup. At the minimum, the outlet needs to be replaced. Likewise, you'll desire us to determine whether there are other issues in your system that might cause comparable risks.

Often you'll see the outlet spark up. The spark will reoccur quickly, however don't ignore it! One small trigger now can start one deadly fire later.

Your circuit box is hot = emergency

That might be a tough one to catch, due to the majority of people do not interact with their circuit box very much on a daily basis. If you do take place to notice heat emanating from your service panel it's essential to call us right away. Again, that's is a fire waiting to happen.

Believe it or not, this one generally isn't a difficult fix. It signifies a loose wire or a bad breaker. In some cases it's an indication of a far more major problem. A professional needs to make that evaluation.

Your electrical box is singing to you = emergency situation

Buzzing noises 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.

Regardless of how you perceive the noise, it is normally a sign of a breaker that's refusing to trip. Breakers are expected to trip when the circuit overheats. Your electrical wiring is dealing with heat and power loads it was never suggested to deal with if the breaker is stopping working to do its task. Shut off all power and call us right now.

The breakers keep tripping = emergency

This suggests among three things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you have got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. Numerous aspects of your electrical system might have gone wrong to produce those issues.

The very first is relatively harmless, however it's a hint your system needs an upgrade. That is particularly true in older houses, which aren't indicated to run nearly as numerous electronics as we now depend on every day. The 2nd 2 are exceptionally dangerous, and require attention immediately.
