Signs of Electrical Issues

It is always best to see the early warning signs of an electrical repair both to prevent potential hazards and to have lower repair costs. At TLS Electrical Contracting Services, we recommend the business owners of Edmonton keep an eye out for:

Flickering lights: most of the time a flickering bulb is due to the light itself. Check to see if it is screwed in properly and also try a replacement bulb. If the flickering persists, then it is probably a loose wire or a bad connection. These should be inspected by a professional as soon as possible as there may be an exposed wire, which is a potential fire hazard.

Burning smells: it can be scary to walk into a room and notice a burning smell with no identifiable source, and with good reason. If the burning smell is acrid then it is a high chance that it is an electrical wire. The first thing to do is close all the lights and turn off any electrical appliances. Contact a professional to come and inspect the situation to ensure your safety. Just in case, we recommend having a fire extinguisher close at hand and keeping an eye on the room in question while you wait for the commercial electrical technician to arrive at your Edmonton business.

Burn marks around electrical sockets: if you see black, brown or grey marks around a socket, or discoloration, it should be taken seriously. There are many reasons for an outlet to have burn marks and none of them are good. Wires that should be safely separated behind the wall may be coming into contact with each other, causing electricity to 'arch'. The circuit itself could be overloading or the outlet could just be old and worn out. Lastly, there could be a heavy buildup of dust or some form of corrosion happening inside the socket itself.

Breakers that flip often: This is something that we see a great deal from our customers in Edmonton. If your breakers are flipping often so that you have to go turn them back on, it is because of an overload in the system. It could be because there are too many appliances on one circuit but there is also the potential for faulty wiring that overheats, causing the breaker to flip as a protective measure.

Fuse box: If the box that distributes power throughout your Edmonton establishment contains fuses, then you should have it inspected. The reason for this is that many fuse boxes today are an outdated form of electrical technology that is not well suited to take on today's modern life style. It is possible that a fuse box may suit your needs but it is always good to keep in mind that as technology advances, your business will require a system that can provide the power you will need in the future. We will gladly, have a look at your system, discuss your future plans, and provide you with accurate assessment of the current electrical capabilities of your business.
