Common Electrical Problems
​
TRIPPING BREAKERS
One of the most frustrating electrical issues is when your circuit breaker constantly trips. This typically happens when a breaker is overloaded or there’s a short circuit, cutting off power to certain areas of your home.
​
Potential Causes:
-
Overloaded Circuits: Too many devices plugged into the same circuit can overwhelm the breaker, forcing it to trip.
-
Short Circuits: A short circuit occurs when a hot wire touches a neutral wire, leading to an unsafe flow of electricity.
-
Ground Faults: A ground fault happens when a hot wire comes into contact with a grounded part of the electrical system.​
​​
FLICKERING LIGHTS
Flickering or dimming lights can be a sign of underlying electrical problems, especially if it happens frequently or affects multiple fixtures.
​
Potential Causes:
-
Loose Bulb or Fixture Connection: A simple problem where the bulb or fixture is not securely attached.
-
Voltage Fluctuations: If your home’s voltage supply is unstable, lights may flicker as a result.
-
Faulty Wiring or Connections: Damaged or old wiring can cause poor connections, leading to inconsistent power flow.
​​
​​​NON-WORKING OUTLETS
An outlet that doesn’t work can be frustrating, especially if it's crucial for powering devices or appliances. It could be caused by a range of issues, from simple wear and tear to deeper electrical faults.
​
Potential Causes:
-
Tripped GFCI Outlet: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlets are designed to shut off power if a ground fault is detected. Sometimes they trip due to moisture or faulty appliances.
-
Loose or Faulty Wiring: Over time, wires can loosen or degrade, interrupting the electrical flow.
-
Blown Fuse or Tripped Breaker: A blown fuse or tripped breaker can cause an outlet to stop working.
