Is your electrical problem an emergency?

Should you wait? Or should you call right now? Here's how to inform:

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

When many homes lose power, the problem is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the utility company to work on, and there's not much we can do about it.

However when you're the only one without power, that's a sign 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 a problem only a skilled electrical contractor can solve.

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

Never a great indication. Unplug everything connected to that outlet. Turn the breaker to shut off power to the outlet and call us right away.

Older outlets are specifically vulnerable to ending up being fire dangers. Loose screws, loose electrical wiring, rust, and used metal all can cause heat accumulation. At least, the outlet needs to be changed. You'll desire us to figure out whether there are other issues in your system that might cause comparable dangers.

In some cases you'll see the outlet spark up. The spark will come and go rapidly, but do not ignore it! One little spark now can begin one deadly fire later.

Your service panel is hot = emergency situation

That might be a hard one to capture, due to the majority of people do not engage with their circuit box very much on a daily basis. But if you do occur to observe heat originating from your circuit box it is necessary to call us right now. Once again, that's is a fire waiting to occur.

Believe it or not, this one typically isn't a difficult fix. It signifies a bad breaker or a loose wire. Sometimes it's a sign of a far more severe issue. An expert 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 people, that might sound more like a humming noise.

Regardless of how you perceive the sound, it is usually a sign of a breaker that's refusing to trip. When the circuit gets too hot, Breakers are supposed to trip. If the breaker is failing to do its job, then your wiring is managing heat and power loads it was never meant to deal with. Turn off all power and call us right away.

The breakers keep tripping = emergency situation

This means one of three things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you have got a short circuit, or you have got a ground fault. A number of components of your electrical system may have gone wrong to produce those issues.

The first is reasonably harmless, however it's a hint your system requires an update. That is specifically real in older houses, which aren't meant to run nearly as lots of electronic devices as we now rely on every day. The 2nd two are exceptionally hazardous, and require attention right now.
