FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between an overhead and an underground electrical service?

Overhead electrical service refers to power lines that are strung on poles and run above ground. They are the most common and cost-effective method to distribute electricity but can be affected by severe weather conditions. In contrast, underground electrical service involves cables buried under the ground, which offer better aesthetics, less exposure to weather-related issues, but higher installation and repair costs.

How often should I have my electrical system checked?

It's generally recommended to have your electrical system inspected every 3-5 years. However, if you notice any irregularities such as flickering lights, tripping circuit breakers, or sparking outlets, you should call an electrician right away.

Can I perform electrical repairs myself?

DIY electrical work is generally not recommended due to the risk of electrocution, fire, or improper installation. It's always safer to hire a licensed professional who is trained to handle electrical systems safely and efficiently.

What are signs that my electrical service may need to be repaired or replaced?

Frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering or dimming lights, burning smells or sparking outlets, outdated fuse boxes, and inadequate power supply are common signs that your electrical service may require repair or replacement.

Why does my circuit breaker keep tripping?

Circuit breakers usually trip to protect your home from potential electrical hazards. This can be caused by an overload, short circuit, or a ground fault. If your breaker is constantly tripping, it's time to call a professional to diagnose and address the problem.

How can I reduce my energy consumption?

Some effective ways to reduce energy consumption include using energy-efficient appliances and lighting, reducing the use of air conditioning and heating, regularly maintaining your electrical appliances, and unplugging devices when not in use.

Is it necessary to install a surge protector?

A surge protector is an important device that protects your appliances and electronic devices from power spikes. Without a surge protector, your devices could be damaged during a power surge, leading to costly replacements or repairs.

How long does it take to install or repair an electrical service?

The duration of the project depends on the complexity of the job and the condition of your existing system. A qualified electrician can provide a more accurate timeline after assessing your needs and the state of your electrical service.

Remember, when it comes to electrical services, safety should always be your top priority. It's always better to rely on professionals for any electrical work on your property.
