The Dangers of Ignoring a Possible Electrical Issue
Putting off dealing with an electrical problem, even a seemingly small one, can lead to serious and costly consequences. A flickering light, a warm outlet, or a breaker that frequently trips might seem like a minor inconvenience, but these are often red flags pointing to a deeper issue within your electrical system. Postponing an inspection or repair allows these hidden dangers to worsen over time. A small wiring fault can degrade and cause a short circuit or an arc fault, which can quickly ignite flammable materials in your walls or attic. This presents a severe fire risk to your home and everyone in it.
Beyond the immediate danger of a fire, neglecting electrical issues can also cause damage to your appliances and electronics. An unstable power supply can send surges that slowly but surely degrade the components in your TV, computer, refrigerator, and other expensive devices. This silent damage can shorten their lifespan or cause them to fail completely. In the long run, the cost of replacing damaged equipment far outweighs the cost of a professional repair. Addressing a potential electrical problem promptly saves you from potential danger and helps protect your most valuable devices and appliances.

Signs You Need Professional Electrical Repairs
Spotting a potential electrical problem early can save you from a major issue down the road. Some warning signs are obvious, but others are more subtle.
If you spot any of the following signs of trouble, it’s time to call our team at Bacon Plumbing Heating Air Electric for repairs:
- Flickering or dimming lights. If your lights flicker or dim when you use an appliance like a microwave or vacuum cleaner, a circuit is likely overloaded. This is a sign that your electrical system can't handle the current power demands of your home.
- Frequent tripped breakers. Circuit breakers trip to prevent electrical overloads that can cause fires. If a breaker trips often, especially when you plug in a specific device, you have a circuit that's pulling too much power. Don't ignore this. It's a key safety feature that is telling you something is wrong.
- Warm outlets or switches. An outlet or switch that feels warm to the touch is a serious warning sign. This heat suggests a wiring problem, an overloaded circuit, or a loose connection. This is a major fire hazard. Do not use the outlet, and call us immediately.
- Strange smells. A burning or smoky smell coming from an outlet, switch, or electrical panel means something is actively overheating. The smell of burning plastic is a sign of a severe electrical problem that demands urgent attention.
- Sparking or arcing. Seeing sparks when you plug in or unplug a device is a massive red flag. Arcing can indicate a loose connection or a short circuit. It poses an immediate fire risk and requires professional attention right away.
- Discolored outlets or cords. If an outlet looks scorched, if it has black marks around it, or if your power cords show signs of melting or discoloration, you are likely dealing with a serious overheating problem. This indicates an overloaded circuit or faulty wiring.
How Frequently Should I Schedule Routine Electrical Inspections?
Even when everything seems fine, you should still schedule a professional electrical inspection every three to five years. We generally recommend more frequent inspections for older homes, especially those over 40 years old or homes with a history of electrical issues. An inspection helps us catch hidden problems before they become serious and dangerous. Just like with a car or a medical check-up, a proactive approach to your home's electrical system can save you from major issues down the road.
During an inspection, we can complete a comprehensive review of your entire electrical system. We can check your main electrical panel for signs of wear and tear, verify the integrity of your wiring, and test outlets, switches, and ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs). Our technicians can also look for code violations, outdated components, and circuits that show signs of an overload. Our goal is to identify potential hazards like loose connections or degraded insulation that you can't see with a casual look. By finding and fixing these small issues, we can help you avoid much larger and more expensive problems.
From rewiring to addressing issues with your electrical panel, we are prepared to take on electrical issues of all sizes and complexities. Call (972) 645-2738 or book an appointment online now.
