Signs That Your Home Needs to be Rewired Part 2

Your electrical wiring won’t last forever, and eventually, your home will need to be rewired.

You rely on your electrical wiring each and evewirery day. Whether it’s for catching up on the evening news or warming up your leftovers, you need electrical wiring that is dependable and safe. Unfortunately, electrical wiring can get damaged or just outdated, and eventually, it will need to be replaced. In our last blog, our electrician in Cincinnati went over a few signs that your electrical wiring needs to be replaced. Here are a few more:

#4. Flickering Lights

If you turn on an appliance in your home, do your lights flicker or get dimmer? If so, you could be overloading the circuit. If this happens repeatedly, it could damage to the wiring and possibly even lead to an electrical fire.

#5. Scorch Marks on Outlets

Scorch marks are a sure sign that there is an issue with your electrical wiring that needs to be addressed. If you see scorch marks or the outlet feels hot to the touch, have a professional electrician take a look as soon as possible.

#6. Noisy Electrical Sources

Have your switches, appliances, outlets or circuit breaker started to crack, pop or buzz? If so, you have a serious problem on your hand, and an electrician needs to be involved right away.

#7. Smoking Outlets

When you notice smoke, first check the appliance to assess the damage. If the appliance was smoking, it could be a sign that it needs to be replaced. If the outlet was smoking, on the other hand, you need professional assistance immediately.
