It is important to remember that all electrical systems are fire hazards. While outlets are usually safe, faulty systems can easily cause accidents. That’s why you should always have trained electricians wire your outlets. Experienced professionals can install them properly, which minimizes the risk of fire. You should also keep an eye out for damaged outlets. They can be dangerous, and you should have a professional repair them as soon as possible.
Call our outlet repair team if you notice any of these problems:
Hot outlet covers
Plugs falling out of the outlet
Burning smells
Discoloration
You should also consider having our outlet installation team upgrade old outlets. Older homes often have outlets that only accept two prongs. They are ungrounded, and they are more dangerous than modern systems. You may want to replace them with GCFI outlets, especially if they are near water. GCFI systems disable themselves if they detect an irregular electrical current. That reduces the risk of electrocution if something goes wrong.
If you need to add a few more outlets to your home, Dawson's Electric can help. While it can be tempting to use a power strip, an extra outlet can be more useful. Power strips are bulky, and they can introduce a tripping hazard to crowded areas. They can also overheat if you use them with some appliances, such as space heaters.
You should also consider installing new electrical outlets if you rely on extension cords. They are a great choice for temporary uses, but outlets are better for routine tasks. It’s easy to break an extension cord, especially if you trip on it. They only support limited electrical loads, and they take up a lot of space. A new outlet is safer, easier, and eliminates clutter from your home.
Electrical outlets are easy to overlook, but they are the foundation of modern life. We use them every day, so it’s vital to keep them in good condition. If you are having trouble with them, our outlet repair and installation team can help. Dawson's Electric is fully licensed and insured, so you can rely on the quality of our work. We also invest in our community. We support local families and sponsor events in the Cary area. When you work with us, you support your friends, neighbors, and community.
