Install New GFCI Outlets in Your Home

Dependable safety measures are important to have in place when using electrical equipment around water. A ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet is the kind you need in your kitchen, bathroom, garage, and other spaces where moisture can accumulate. A GFCI outlet will automatically turn off when it detects a dangerous current disruption. For example, if you drop your hair dryer in a sink with the water running, the GFCI outlet would cut the device's power, preventing electrocution.

You can recognize a GFCI outlet by its test and reset buttons. GFCI outlets are important for your safety, and building codes require them in all homes. Some older homes may lack GFCI outlets, so you might need to update your outlets to GFCI outlets when you move into a home built before the 1970s to protect your family.

When to Schedule Outlet Repair and Installation Services

Malfunctioning outlets increase the risk of electrocution or electrical fires. It's necessary to repair or replace electrical outlets when damage or age adds up. Poor condition prevents wires from working as well as they should. These are some common signs that you need to request our outlet replacement and repair services: 

• The outlet isn't able to hold the plug steadily. 
• The outlets spark when plugging or unplugging appliances.
• The outlet has burn marks. 
• Lights flicker when you plug something into the outlet.
• The outlet doesn't provide electricity even after toggling the breaker switch.

Are My Outlets Up to Date?

Today's household electrical outlets have two receptacles for three-pronged plugs. If your outlets only have holes for two-pronged plugs, then you would benefit from updating them. 

Each receptacle in a new outlet has a 120-volt ‘hot’ wire, a neutral wire, and a ground wire. The ground wire is a necessary safety feature that redirects electricity in the event of a short circuit, ensuring functional, safe electricity delivery to the devices plugged into the outlet.
