Should you wait? Or should you call immediately? Here's how to tell:
When numerous houses lose power, the problem is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the utility business to work on, and there's not much we can do about it.
However when you're the only one without power, that's an indication something's gone wrong on your end. If you turn the breakers and confirmed that you paid your electric costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You have got a problem just a skilled electrician can resolve.
Never a great indication. Unplug whatever attached to that outlet. Turn the breaker to shut off power to the outlet and call us immediately.

In some cases you'll see the outlet trigger up. The trigger will come and go quickly, but do not ignore it! One small trigger now can begin one deadly fire later on.
That might be a difficult one to catch, due to most people do not interact with their service panels very much on a day-to-day basis. However if you do take place to see heat emanating from your circuit box it is essential to call us immediately. Again, that's is a fire waiting to take place.
Believe it or not, this one generally isn't a tough fix. It's a sign of a loose wire or a bad breaker. However sometimes it suggests a much more serious issue. A professional requires to make that assessment.
Buzzing sounds from the breaker box are another sign of a loose wire or a bad breaker that can cause a fire. To some people, that might sound more like a humming noise.
Despite how you perceive the sound, it is generally an indication of a breaker that's refusing to trip. When the circuit gets too hot, Breakers are supposed to trip. If the breaker is failing to do its task, then your wiring is managing heat and power loads it was never indicated to deal with. Turn off all power and call us right away.
This indicates one of 3 things: your electrical system is getting overloaded, you have got a short circuit, or you've got a ground fault. A number of aspects of your electrical system might have failed to produce those issues.
The very first is fairly safe, but it's a tip your system needs an update. That is especially true in older homes, which aren't implied to run almost as numerous electronics as we now depend on every day. The 2nd 2 are incredibly dangerous, and need attention right away.
