One of the biggest risks of neglecting electrical inspections is an electrical fire. Any improperly installed or faulty electrical components are at a higher risk of starting a fire, which is especially true of older homes. Regular electrical inspections allow us to spot and repair any faulty electrical work, potentially saving your home from a disaster.
Winter often brings increased use of heating systems, lights, and electrical devices, which can put additional strain on your home’s electrical system. An inspection ensures that your system is safe, efficient, and capable of handling the extra load.
Flickering lights, frequent tripped breakers, unusual noises from outlets or panels, and burning smells near electrical fixtures are all warning signs that require prompt professional attention.
Before your inspection, remove any obstacles around your electrical panel and ensure your electrician has access to all outlets and major appliances. It’s also helpful to list any electrical problems or concerns you’ve noticed.
While you should continue to have a yearly electrical safety inspection for your home, there are additional symptoms that can occur around your home that signal something is wrong with your electrical system. In the event that you begin to notice any of the following signs and symptoms around your house, you will need to schedule a safety inspection as soon as possible as these are indicative of potential danger:
Whether they are flickering on and off from your overhead ceiling lights, floor lamp, or other light fixtures, something is not wired properly and needs to be addressed immediately.
If you begin noticing strange burning smells around your home, specifically around electrical appliances, call DJs Home Services as soon as possible!
Arguably the biggest giveaway that you are in need of an immediate electrical inspection is if any of your outlets, switches, or sockets are hot to the touch, especially if more than one of the above are hot.
If you hear a lot of buzzing or humming noises coming from one or more of your appliances this can indicate potential loose connections, faulty wiring, or defective appliances. The only way to determine what is causing the buzzing is to conduct a professional electrical safety inspection.
When your circuit breaker trips, it is due to too high a load of electricity from appliances around your home. If you notice when using certain outlets around your house that your circuit breaker continually trips, no matter the device, there is an issue with your electrical system and an electrical inspection will help diagnose the issue.
Overloading your outlets with extension cords and subsequently, excessive power, can really wear out your outlets and electrical system. If you are guilty of using a lot of extension cords, it’s okay! Just schedule an electrical safety inspection to ensure you aren’t overloading your sockets.
Hopefully, it is common knowledge that if you ever see sparks coming from your outlets or appliances, this is a massive fire hazard and you will need to have a certified electrician at DJs Home Services come out to your home immediately!
