When to Call an Electrician

Recognizing the appropriate time to call a Empire Electrical Solutions is paramount. Attempting to address these issues without the requisite experience and training can exacerbate the problem and expose you, your family, and your employees to unnecessary risks.

Signs such as regular blown fuses or frequently tripped circuit breakers indicate that your circuits are operating beyond their safe capacity, necessitating the attention of an electrician. These occurrences may also serve as warnings of potential faults within one or more circuits.

Furthermore, instances of flickering or waning lights when high-powered appliances are in use can be resolved by establishing dedicated circuits for these specific devices. Should issues persist with smaller appliances, the inclusion of a 20 amp line may be recommended.

If your electrical system surfaces emit warmth upon touch, it may indicate a potentially hazardous situation. Possible causes range from overloaded circuits to the presence of aluminum wiring. Additionally, mild shocks while handling switches or outlets, as well as blackening around switch plates, terminals, or wire ends, should be promptly addressed by a professional electrician.

Electrical System Age

The age of your electrical system is a significant factor to consider. Homes that have not undergone upgrades in over 25 years often experience a higher frequency of issues. Outdated wiring systems can be inadequate or hazardous, and electrical panels may no longer meet current safety standards. Contacting Empire Electrical Solutions to inspect your house and, if necessary, update it to meet the latest code standards is a proactive step towards ensuring a safe electrical environment.
