When to Call an Electrical Contractor
Problems with your electrical system can manifest in various ways; however, some symptoms may fly under the radar unless you know what to look for.
Here are signs you need to call a professional electrician for help to avoid more expensive repairs down the road.
Flickering Lights
Flickering lights are one of the most common warning signs alerting homeowners of electrical problems. However, many people assume it’s a faulty or failing bulb that’s causing the problem and don’t think that it could be an issue with their electrical panel. For quick diagnosis, call a professional.
Buzzing Noises
Your electrical system should operate silently, so if you hear buzzing when using the lights or outlets, it should be cause for alarm.
Hot Outlets or Switches
An outlet or switch that gets hot when in use isn’t normal and could cause an electrical fire if you don’t fix it quickly.
Electric Shock
It’s normal to get a static electric shock now and again; however, if it’s a routine occurrence in your home or office when contacting an object connected to the electrical system, it could mean you have faulty grounding.
Loose Outlets
Loose outlets are a common household electrical problem, especially in older homes, but it’s not something you should put up with, because it’s a dangerous situation. Loose outlets and electrical connections can cause short circuits, electrical shocks, and fire.
Outdated Wiring
There are many beautiful century homes throughout the San Diego area. However, many of these older homes still rely on the original wiring, which can’t handle the power needs of the 21st-century family. If you don’t have enough outlets to charge your gadgets and plug in your electronics, or you have frequent breaker trips, call a professional electrician to find out how you can update your wiring and electrical system to give you the juice you need.
While it’s important to know the signs of electrical problems, it’s equally important that you call a professional residential electrician for troubleshooting and repair because of the risk involved.
Why Do-It-Yourself Electrical Repair is a Bad Idea
With tons of YouTube videos and online tutorials available, many homeowners think they can tackle household wiring and electrical repairs themselves. However, fixing an electrical problem isn’t like fixing a broken toilet; the risk of getting it wrong or making a mistake during electrical repair can literally be fatal.
Another thing to consider is that all electrical repairs and installations must follow local codes in the greater San Diego area and can open you up to fines and levies if your home is ever inspected in the future.
