Call Federal Electric 24/7 if you need an emergency electrician!

Have you been experiencing a troubling electricity issue, but are unclear if it qualifies as an emergency situation? An emergency doesn’t have to be a dangerous situation. At the first sign of any trouble, you should call an electrician to handle the situation. Federal Electric is standing by 24/7 for any questions or emergency problems.

What constitutes an electrical emergency?

The following typically constitute an electrical emergency

  • Your power is out 
  • Your outlet is overloaded 
  • Your circuit breaker is not working properly

In most cases, if you feel that your electrical issue is an electrical emergency, it is. When in doubt, you should call an electrician and they will be able to determine if the issue you are experiencing is an electrical emergency. To find out more about our emergency services, contact us today.

Should electrical plugs get hot?

No, electrical plugs should not get hot. If your outlet is hot, that can be an indication of loose or faulty wiring that should be addressed right away. A hot outlet can pose a huge risk if it becomes too hot or there is an electrical shock, as it can lead to an electrical fire. If you notice your outlet is hot to the touch, you should remove anything that is plugged in and have an electrician inspect the outlet to determine what the exact issue is. Call us today to get your electrical outlet checked.

Is it dangerous if a circuit breaker keeps tripping?

Yes, a circuit breaker that keeps tripping can be dangerous. If your circuit breaker keeps tripping, that indicates that there is a deeper issue with your electrical connections. A circuit breaker will typically trip due to a short circuit, an overloaded circuit or faulty wiring. Each of these issues should not be ignored, as they can lead to safety issues with your home’s electrical connections. To get your home’s electrical issue fixed, give us a call today.
