Maintain Electrical safety:
• Check all electrical cords,
do not use frayed, stiff or cracked cords. The insulation on electrical cords
can become damaged by wear, flexing or age.
• Warm or
tingly switches and outlets: Could be a loose or deteriorating connection, which
impedes current flow and creates
resistance. This may create a dangerous condition that could result in shock or
fire.
• Dim lights when appliances turn on: High demand
appliances such as A/C, Clothes Dryers, Refrigerators
and Furnaces need extra power
when they start up. This temporary current draw can be more than just
a nuisance, it can damage equipment.
Could be a circuit overload.
• Circuit breakers
tripping constantly: You home electrical system has built in safeguards. Too
much current
causes the breakers to open or fuses to
melt. When a circuit shuts down repeatedly, it’s a warning that should not be
ignored.
• Do you have old and crumbling wiring? Is
your wiring old, is it wrapped in cloth sheathing or bits of black rubber in an electrical box? You should have a Service Upgrade to
ensure your family's Safety.
• Are GFCI’s installed
where required; The National Electrical Code now requires extra protection for
outlets in
specific areas of your home such as
Kitchens, Baths, Utility rooms, Garages and Outdoors. GFCI are identifiable by their TEST & RESET
buttons. They are required in proximity to wet locations. If you do nothave GFCI’s in these areas, you are not fully
protected.
