This is what a failing electrical connection can look like. A loose connection or overloaded outlet can turn into excessive heat, and potentially cause a house fire.
Some warning signs to look out for:
- Burn marks or discoloration around an outlet.
- Outlets that feel warm to the touch.
- Flickering lights or intermittent power.
- Sparking when plugging in appliances.
We see this happen a lot out in the field. If you experience any of these warning signs, be sure to have it inspected and repaired by a licensed electrician immediately.
Stay safe out there!
