How to Tell If I Need to Install an Electrical Outlet
Traditional wall outlets can last up to 15 years or as few as five depending on numerous factors, including usage, quality, and age. If you own an older home, monitoring the quality of your home’s outlets is especially important. Faulty outlets can pose an electrocution and fire hazard, putting you, your family, and your home at risk. As a homeowner, it’s essential to recognize the signs your outlets are beginning to fail to prevent damage or injury. Some of the most common signs include the following:
- Doesn’t Work – It’s frustrating to have an outlet that doesn’t power your electronics, especially if the outlet is in a convenient location.
- Two-Pronged Outlets – Two pronged-outlets provide no grounding protection, meaning any electrical surge could cause electrocution or a fire. Three-pronged outlets are now the standard for newer homes.
- Damaged – If your outlet is cracked, burned, or loose, you should stop using it immediately. Your home’s outlets should be in good condition to be used.
- Plug Falls Out Easily – The plug from your electronics should fit into the outlet firmly. When the plug falls out easily, it’s not only annoying, but it can also lead to a house fire.
- Sparks – If you notice sparks when you plug in or unplug an electronic it’s a warning sign that your outlet needs to be replaced immediately.
- New Appliance Installation – Protect your new appliance by ensuring it has sufficient power. We can install a new outlet to match the needs of your appliance while keeping your home and family safe.
