Common Electrical Problems

  • Flickering Lights
    Flickering lights typically indicate a poor connection within a wiring circuit. This problem may occur in just a room or two, or throughout the home. It can also involve the connection to the main electricity wire. If ignored, a flickering connection can short out electronics and appliances and even pose a fire hazard.
  • Tripped Circuit Breakers
    Tripping breakers indicate an overloaded circuit or an underlying wiring issue. Circuit breakers are designed to protect the electrical system in your home, so if your breakers trip repeatedly, it’s time to have the problem inspected by a Ritter Electric Services licensed electrician before it grows into a costly repair.
  • Dead Outlets
    Outlets lose power for many reasons, but the fix doesn’t always require an electrician. If you encounter a dead outlet, first check your breaker box for a tripped breaker. A quick reset may be all you need. On outlets with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), be sure the switch or button is on. If you cannot get power to an outlet, or if the outlet continues to trip and lose power, it’s time to call Ritter Electrical Services to solve the problem.
  • Dead Switches
    Light switches that work intermittently give away another home electrical problem. The wiring may be loose or the device may be cracked internally. If a wire is loose in a switch, it can pose a problem as well. An unsuspecting individual could accidentally receive a shock when flipping the switch.
  • No GFCI's
    Increased risk of electrocution in wet areas, such as baths and kitchens. GFCIs (ground-fault circuit interrupters) shut down circuits in 4 milliseconds, before current can cause a deadly shock.
  • Burning Odor
    If you notice a burning odor turn the power off at the electrical panel. Contact a qualified Ritter electrician for appropriate repairs. The problem may be a faulty device, but it could also be a wiring or overload problem. A burning smell is a serious issue because it could indicate the start of an electrical fire. Receptacles or connected electrical cords that are warm to the touch are also a sign of an electrical problem. Do not use the receptacle until the situation has been repaired.
