Signs Your Plugs & Switches Need Repair

When it comes to your outlets and light switches, they are mostly taken for granted until they stop working or start acting peculiar. Thankfully, there are signs that you can look out for that will indicate you need and outlet repair before it’s too late. This can include:

• FLICKERING LIGHTS: Flickering lights are annoying, but they also point to a larger issue that should be taken care of right away.
• DIMMING BULBS: If you have lights that are bright while others are dim, this can indicate an issue with the main neutral connection. This is also true if you have popping bulbs.
• BLOWN FUSES: If you have an older electrical panel, and you are blowing fuses when you are plugging items into an outlet, this is an indication that the system is not able to handle the wattage and you’ll need to have a service technician on-site.
• TRIPPING THE CIRCUIT BREAKER: This is the same situation as a blown fuse, however, tripping the circuit breaker happens on newer systems.
• NOT -WORKING COMPONENTS: If you have outlets or light switches that do not work at all, you want to reach out to have the issue looked at as it could be loose or frayed wiring that could potentially cause a fire.

At Magic Electric, Plumbing, Heating + Air, we offer reliable outlet repair service. Additionally, we can help you upgrade to more efficient receptacles and switches from Levington, which will add functionality and safety to your home’s electrical system.

When Should You Opt for a Panel Upgrade?

If you are living in an older Kimberly, ID home and are still dealing with blown fuses, chances are you’re going to need an upgrade on your breaker panel. Having the circuit breaker upgraded to a modern system will provide you with a lot of benefits including a safer electrical system for you and your family.

Take a look at some of these signs that indicate you need to have your electrical panel replaced and upgraded:

• If you notice signs of burning such as strong odors or marks on the electrical panel it could indicate that your wiring has worn down and is exposed.
• If you continuously have to reset the circuit breaker or replace fuses due to overvoltages, it generally means that you either have loose connections or the system is not strong enough to handle the wattage that is required.
• Also, if you are unable to reset the breaker after you have tripped it, the panel may be faulty.
• Lights that dim or flicker, while you are using other appliances such as blenders, hairdryers, or other items, point to a panel that is not equipped to handle the amount of electricity.
• Finally, if you are still using fuses at all, you should upgrade your system to a more modern breaker panel.

The biggest benefit, as mentioned, of replacing your electrical panel is the added safety for your home. Faulty wiring and electrical connections can cause fires that can be devastating for the homeowner. If you are unsure whether or not you need an upgrade, reach out to us today for an electrical inspection.

The Importance of Reliable Backup Energy

If you have a home backup generator system, you are well ahead of the game. In general, you are well aware of the benefits that having one of these systems can provide when there is a blackout or an emergency.

That being said, if your generator is not performing at an optimal level or it is not working at all, it is going to be less than useless during a power outage. Take a look at the top three signs that your generator needs repair.

• Over time, your generator may form a leak from the hose, line, or storage pan. This indicates that you need to have a technician come out and repair the system.
• Electrical components are another common cause of a generator malfunction. Components such as wires, buttons, and other elements will wear down over time and need to be inspected annually.
• The last sign is if you have trouble starting the generator. If you noticed that the system sputters or is it not running correctly while it is on, you should reach out to us for assistance.
