Is your electrical issue an emergency situation?

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

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

When lots of homes lose power, the problem is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the energy business to deal with, and there's very little we can do about it.

When you're the only one without power, that's an indication something's gone incorrect on your end. If you turn the breakers and validated that you paid your electrical expense this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You've got an issue only a skilled electrical contractor can fix.

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

Never a good sign. Disconnect everything attached to that outlet. Flip the breaker to switch off power to the outlet and call us immediately.

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

In some cases you'll see the outlet stimulate up. The stimulate will come and go quickly, but don't ignore it! One small trigger now can begin one deadly fire later.

Your service panel is hot = emergency situation

That might be a tough one to capture, due to many people don't communicate with their service panels very much on an everyday basis. However if you do happen to observe heat emanating from your service panel it is very important to call us right now. Once again, that's is a fire waiting to take place.

Think it or not, this one usually isn't a difficult repair. It's a sign of a bad breaker or a loose wire. In some cases it's an indication of a far more severe issue. A professional needs to make that examination.

Your electrical box is singing to you = emergency situation

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 may sound more like a humming noise.

Despite how you perceive the sound, it is generally a sign of a breaker that's declining to trip. Breakers are supposed to trip when the circuit gets too hot. If the breaker is failing to do its task, then your electrical wiring is handling heat and power loads it was never meant to deal with. Shut off all power and call us right now.

The breakers keep tripping = emergency situation

This implies among 3 things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you've got a short circuit, or you've got a ground fault. Numerous elements of your electrical system might have failed to produce those issues.

The very first is relatively safe, but it's a hint your system requires an upgrade. That is especially real in older homes, which aren't meant to run almost as lots of electronic devices as we now rely on every day. The second 2 are exceptionally hazardous, and require attention immediately.
