It is important to seek out the services of a professional and licensed electrical contractor to undertake the repairs. If you work during the day consider a 24 hour electrician. Look out for these warning signs which evidence the need find an electrician:

When fuses blow often it means your circuits are drawing more current than what can be safely provided.

The lights flicker and dim. Do smaller or larger appliances interfere with the lighting?

Do you have power boards at nearly every outlet? If so this suggests the system is overloaded and beyond capacity.

If wires are running under the carpet and furniture, this reflects a shortage of strategically placed outlets.

Are the power outlets two pronged (and therefore won't take standard three pronged devices)?

Has rust or moisture started to crawl into the main service panel?

Is your home older than 25 years and never been upgraded? If so it may mean the wiring is potentially hazardous, and an emergency electrician is in order.

To ensure the safety of all the occupants inside your home hire a local electrician near you. Have them inspect the electrical wiring and if necessary repair it to meet today’s standards. Give yourself peace of mind.
