4 Common Residential Electrical Issues
If your home’s electrical system is in need of repair work, let Five Star Home Services take charge of all your electrical needs. We offer 24-hour emergency electrical repair work 365 days a year.
OVERLOADED CIRCUIT
Circuit overload occurs when the amount of electricity flowing to an appliance or device exceeds what it can handle. For instance, if your lamp is rated for a maximum 60 watt bulb and you don’t feel like that’s bright enough and decide to put in a 100watt bulb, you end up overloading the lamp. In the worst-case scenario, the heat from the bulb melts the socket and the insulation in the fixture wires. If this causes the wires to spark, you could end up with an electrical fire.
SAGS AND DIPS
Sags and dips in power levels are closely related to power surges. Small appliances are usually the culprit behind these issues. It’s essentially an intermittent drop in electrical voltage. They usually only last a second. They are also known as “brown-outs.” It happens when your lights get dim and then get bright again, without going off all the way.
Brown-outs also happens when you have too many large appliances running at the same time. These appliances could be drawing too much from an outdated electric panel or could be outdated and require too much power. Additionally, old or faulty wiring can also be part of the blame.
NOT ENOUGH OUTLETS
A lot of people don’t think about it, but not having enough electrical outlets is a problem. This is an electrical issue whether you realize it or not. While extension cords and power strips can work for temporary fixes, they aren’t meant to be the only option. If using an extension cord is your permanent solution to a lack of outlets in a room, you have to make sure you’re using at least a 14-gauge heavy-load cord or a UL-listed surge protector.
Extension cord safety is something that should be taken seriously. Don’t daisy-chain two or more together cords together or ever try using them in an attic or crawl space. If you need more outlets, you need to call an electrician at Five Star Home Services. We are your friendly neighborhood electrician serving all of Ohio’s residential electrical needs in one place.
UNCOVERED JUNCTION BOXES
Uncovered junction boxes are a hidden problem lurking inside walls you don’t think about. A junction box is a professional casing used for various wires. They get installed during construction. They also get replaced often with an electrical upgrade.
