It’s National Electrical Saftey Month! Is your pre-1990 home up to code? It might feel safe but your home could be struggling to keep up with the 2026 technology. From Ev chargers to high powered smart appliances, we’re asking more out of our homes than ever before.
Red flags!!🚩
Flickering or dimming lights: usually happens when large appliance (like the ac) kick on
Warm outlet covers: outlets should never be warm to the touch this indicates loose wiring or overload.
Frequent tripped breakers: your panel is literally screaming at you that it can’t handle the load
Two-prong outlets: A lack of “grounding” increases risk of shock and surge damage to electronics.
