Signs it's an emergency
These situations call for an electrician right away — not a wait-and-see approach.
Burning smell or smoke
A burning or plastic smell from an outlet, switch, or panel is a serious warning sign. If you ever see smoke or flames, leave the area and call 911 first, then call an electrician.
Sparking outlets or equipment
Sparks, popping sounds, or scorch marks around outlets, switches, or your electrical panel should never be ignored. Stop using the affected equipment and get it looked at.
Hot panel or warm breakers
An electrical panel or breaker that is hot or warm to the touch points to an overloaded or failing circuit. Turn off the affected breakers and call right away.
Partial or complete power loss
If part of your home loses power while the rest works — or everything goes out and your neighbors still have power — the problem is likely in your service equipment or wiring.
Repeatedly tripping breakers
A breaker that trips again and again is doing its job — telling you something is wrong. Resetting it over and over without finding the cause can lead to bigger problems.
Storm, water, or lightning damage
Lightning, wind, and water can damage meter bases, panels, and service equipment. If your electrical equipment took a hit during a storm, have it inspected before you rely on it.
