When To Stop Troubleshooting And Call For Help Now
There is a point where flipping breakers stops being troubleshooting and becomes a risk. If a device is producing heat, odor, or noise, the fault is already energized and moving in the wrong direction. Put the tools down and pick up the phone.
Stop and call if you find:
- A burning smell at an outlet or switch, even faint, with nothing plugged in
- Scorch marks, browned faces or hot cover plates anywhere in the house
- Sparking outlets, arcing switches or a buzzing panel interior
- Water in contact with panels, outlets or exterior fixtures
- Repeated breaker trips that will not reset after the load is removed
Safe steps to take before the technician arrives
Unplug what was running on the affected circuit if the cord is safe to reach, leave that breaker in the off position, and keep the room clear of children and pets until an electrician has looked at it.
Shutting off power at the main without risk
Stand to one side of the panel, keep one hand at your side, and switch a single breaker rather than the main when the trouble sits on one circuit. If the enclosure is wet, hot or making noise, do not open the door at all. Our electrician will kill the service safely.
