However when you're the only one without power, that's an indication something's gone wrong on your end. If you turn the breakers and validated that you paid your electric costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call.

Never a good indication. Disconnect everything attached to that outlet. Flip the breaker to shut off power to the outlet and call us right now.

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.

If the breaker is failing to do its task, then your electrical wiring is dealing with heat and power loads it was never indicated to deal with. Shut off all power and call us immediately.
This indicates one of three things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you've got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. Several components of your electrical system may have failed to produce those issues.
The very first is reasonably safe, however it's a tip your system needs an update. That is particularly true in older houses, which aren't meant to run nearly as lots of electronic devices as we now count on every day. The 2nd 2 are very dangerous, and require attention immediately.
