MAKE FRIENDS WITH YOUR WIRING

Your home’s wiring conducts electricity, which makes your life convenient and much easier than it would be otherwise. The electric panel is like a huge station that controls the flow.

Check Your Electrical Panel

Some older brands of electric panels are no longer manufactured because of faulty construction and performance. If your panel feels hot, have it checked out.

A skilled electrician can quickly tell you if your electrical panel is older and whether it needs replacing.

Understand the Breakers

If your breakers trip, it is for a reason. Again, simply pay attention. Generally, tripped breakers mean too many appliances are drawing power from the same circuit. Once you move your appliances around, if breakers continue to trip, call an electrician to help you.
