Frequent circuit trips and power outages may mean you need your circuit breakers replaced. Contact us today to schedule a consultation in Upper Marlboro!
It’s pretty easy to take your Upper Marlboro home or business’ breakers for granted. Breakers tend to last a really long time, and are often pretty much out of sight and out of mind. That is, until you begin noticing electrical problems in your home. Then it’s a quick trip to the breaker box (or a phone to call a professional, if you’re quick on the draw!) to start hitting switches until something happens.
As a cautionary statement, we would beg you to not ever do this. Beyond the fact that you may cause more issues than were present before, electricity is nothing to fiddle with and carries some serious risks.
Signs You May Need Circuit Breaker Replacement in Upper Marlboro
Breakers are rather hardy, but they aren’t impervious to aging, wearing down, or simply breaking. Warning signs for breakers that need to be replaced in Upper Marlboro include:
- Breakers are flipping too often. When a breaker gets too old or worn down, it may begin flipping erratically. This does not mean there are no other issues in your home’s electricity, but if all other aspects are as usual, and you’ve done nothing different or new, the breaker may be at fault.
- Breakers do not remain reset. When your breaker flips, the first impulse is to, of course, reset it. Sometimes the breaker will flip again mere moments after being reset, and this behavior is a likely indication that there is an issue with the breaker itself.
- Acrid or burning smells. Electrical fires are very dangerous. If you note odd smells, hot or excessively warm breakers, or charring in your breaker box, contact a professional immediately. This situation is highly dangerous and requires professional help right away.
