If your home is over 25, you should have your system inspected to see if you need an upgrade.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You notice sparks or get shocked when you plug something into your outlets. <\/strong>Sparks or electrical shocks are indicative of a serious issue and should not be overlooked. If you notice these, be sure to contact an electrician right away to ensure your home is safe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>You don\u2019t have any GFCIs. <\/strong>Your home may not be up to code if you don\u2019t have any GFCIs (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) on your outlets near water. Not only is this dangerous, but it could impact your home\u2019s resale value, as today\u2019s homebuyers expect GFCIs in kitchens and bathrooms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your circuit breaker trips frequently. <\/strong>It\u2019s not necessarily a bad thing if your circuit breaker trips every now and then. In fact, it\u2019s what they\u2019re supposed to do when they\u2019re overloaded. But if your circuit breaker trips all the time, you\u2019ll want to get an electrician to take a look at it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Light bulbs flicker or burn out too often. <\/strong>There are a lot of factors that can cause bulbs to burn out too quickly or make lights flicker, so isolating the exact cause of these issues can be challenging for the average homeowner. If you\u2019re experiencing problems with your lights, it\u2019s best to contact an electrician and have them assess the problem.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having your home\u2019s electrical system inspected may not always be top of mind, but it is an important part of home maintenance.
