When to seek electrical repairs
Even though electric systems are built to be more reliable than ever, it’s still very common to experience problems from time to time. All the daily wear and tear is bound to lead to electrical issues, at which point it is critical to call a technician. Residents may not know whether a circuit breaker is malfunctioning or the wires are damaged, but they can identify basic warning signs. After our knowledgeable electricians have been alerted, we can identify the root cause and apply a proper solution.
Some of the most common signs that it is time to call an electrician in Boise include:
- Lights that are constantly flickering in and out
- Places where wires have been cut, frayed, or even chewed by rodents
- Outlets and sockets that feel warm to the touch, even if they’re not being used
- Lights that go dim when other appliances are used
- Buzzing, humming, or sizzling sounds coming from the wires
- Visible traces of the wire where it has been exposed
- The inability to use more than one electrical appliance without tripping the breakers
Does Your House Need a Service Upgrade?
In the past, houses used to be automatically set up with a 100-amp service. This was because they did not need to operate many large appliances, other than a refrigerator, telephone, and lights. Now, however, 200-amp service, at the very least, is the recommended level. A boost in usage was critical since homes need to use exponentially more electricity for dishwashers, TVs, and freezers. In some cases, the increased number of appliances and devices in a single house is so great that a 400-amp service is required. Particularly when household members, friends, and guests are using multiple devices at a time, the old levels of amperage aren’t enough.
If the service panel in your home is in excellent condition, but there seem to be problems with the circuit breakers, call our techs. The service amperage likely needs to be upgraded. Our team at Idahome Energy can provide a thorough inspection to check that none of the wiring is outdated or the breakers are corroded. If it turns out that more amperage is needed, we can safely increase the service so you can power all your appliances.
