Issues with circuit breakers are among the most common reasons that area households need an electrician. Tripped circuit breakers happen from time to time, and an isolated trip isn’t unusual. However, frequent trips are not common.
If you experience the same breaker tripping, we may need to replace it. It could also be a faulty wire or suggest a problem with a device on the circuit. If you experience frequent trips across an array of breakers, it could be an overloaded circuit or the panel itself.
Never use power strips to overcome not being able to run enough devices at the same time. That can overload the circuit and cause damage to devices and electrical components. Monitor outlet and switch health as well. Outlets can potentially last 30 years, but many fail sooner.
Schedule an electrical repair for any outlet that’s loose. Don’t ignore discoloration because it indicates that there was sparking or even arcing at one point. Also, watch for outlets that are warm to the touch, which can indicate overloading, damaged wiring, or a loose connection.
Another common issue households experience is lighting that flickers or dims. In some cases, it’s just a temporary disruption to the main power supply. If it happens more often, it generally indicates an electrical problem in the home. It could be as simple as an incompatible bulb, or you might need to replace the fixture.
Beyond those problems, the issue could be an overloaded circuit, a worn wire, or a bad connection where the wire meets the fixture. If the flickering or dimming is more widespread, it may suggest a problem with the electrical panel itself.
Watch for these other signs you may need an electrician to perform an inspection.
- Dead outlets
- Frequent bulb burnout
- Arcing from outlets or switches
- Unexplained rising electricity use
- Burning smells from electrical components
