If you notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule an evaluation with a licensed electrician:
Can indicate overloaded circuits, failing breakers, or wiring issues.
Often signs of loose connections, voltage fluctuation, or overloaded circuits.
Any noise or movement from devices is a safety concern and should be addressed promptly.
Older wiring with no ground should be evaluated and often upgraded for modern safety.
Can indicate overheating and a serious fire risk if not corrected.
Permanent loads should be on properly installed dedicated circuits—not cords.
Critical in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and exterior locations for shock protection.
