<strong>When</strong> You Need <strong>to</strong><strong>Hire</strong> an <strong>Electrical</strong> Contrac<strong>to</strong>r <strong>–</strong> <strong>Warning</strong> <strong>Signs</strong>
According <strong>to</strong> <strong>Electrical</strong> Safety Foundation International,<br />
“<strong>Electrical</strong> malfunction causes more than 50,000 house fires<br />
each year”.<br />
Many homeowners ignore their electrical system until there is<br />
a problem, which could lead <strong>to</strong> a costly expense. A home’s<br />
electrical system is prone <strong>to</strong> wear and tear and requires<br />
regular checking just like any other maintenance item.<br />

Sign #1<br />
FLICKERING LIGHTS<br />
• If you spot lights in your home that occasionally flicker like<br />
candle flames, don’t ignore these occurrences.<br />
• This indicates a power surge running through the electrical<br />
system, likely because a large appliance (the refrigera<strong>to</strong>r, the<br />
air conditioner) has put excessive demand on the system.<br />
• Small power surges like this will cause cumulative damage<br />
<strong>to</strong> appliances in your home, and could warn of bad circuits.<br />

Sign #2<br />
WARM OR SPARKING OUTLETS<br />
• Increased heat coming from outlets cause sparks whenever<br />
you plug an appliance in<strong>to</strong> them, which in turn causes an<br />
electrical fire.<br />
• Do not unscrew the outlet <strong>to</strong> look in<strong>to</strong> it yourself; call for an<br />
experienced electrical contrac<strong>to</strong>r.<br />

Sign #3<br />
ELECTRICAL SHOCKS<br />
• If you feel a mild shock when <strong>to</strong>uching an electrical<br />
appliance or an outlet, a ground fault in the appliance or<br />
improper electrical wiring may be the cause.<br />
• Call for an electrician <strong>to</strong> investigate the trouble and find a<br />
solution.<br />

Sign #4<br />
HEARING DIFFERENT BUZZING SOUNDS<br />
• Usually, electricity flows smoothly and quietly between<br />
connections. But loose prongs, outlets or fraying wire can all<br />
cause the current <strong>to</strong> jump, producing a buzzing sound in the<br />
process.<br />
• If you’re sure a sound is originating at an outlet, s<strong>to</strong>p using it<br />
and call an electrician.<br />
