🚨3/11/26 - Knox County, OH - Tornado watch until 5:00PM EST⚡️🌪️

High winds may cause damage to electrical lines and other outdoor equipment. When the power goes out, the electric company only handles the lines leading to your house. If the issue is in your meter base or your main panel, they can’t help—but we can. If you’re facing an electrical emergency that’s 'past the meter,' give us a call.

🚨 This could have ended in tragedy… but it didn’t have to happen at all.

Last week we got an emergency call at 10 AM — it was right before Thanksgiving. A tenant in an apartment complex heard what sounded like someone kicking in her front door… it was actually her electrical panel EXPLODING. Flames were shooting out of the box.

Thankfully she was home, saw the fire, and got out safely. The fire department put it out, then called us.

Cause? A loose lug on the main service wire — something that could have been caught with a simple inspection.

We were on-site before 11 AM, ripped out the melted panel, inspected and repaired all the damaged wiring, installed a brand-new panel, tested everything, and had her heat back on before the holiday cold snap hit. She never had to leave her home.

Here’s the scary part: the tenant told us they’d been having flickering lights and intermittent outlets for DAYS — classic warning signs most people ignore until it’s too late.

Central OH friends — don’t let this be your story.

If your lights flicker, breakers trip often, outlets feel warm, or you just can’t remember the last time your panel was checked… message Buckingham Electric LLC today for a full electrical safety inspection.

One quick visit now could prevent a total disaster later — and keep your family safe this holiday season (and every day after).

🔧 Serving Mount Vernon, all of Knox County and surrounding areas
✅ Free quotes | Same-day & emergency service | Licensed & insured
📞 Call or message us right now — let’s make sure YOUR panel isn’t the next one to go up in flames.

If you heard, the Rastin Tower at Ariel-Foundation Park was closed for maintenance today - we were privileged with the opportunity to work alongside the City of Mount Vernon to help them make some additions to the tower. We have to give a huge shoutout to Holmes Rental & Sales, Mt. Vernon for the rental and transportation of this monster 120’ boom lift! We will have more pictures and videos to come!
