How do I know if I need to replace my electrical outlets?
You may need to replace your electrical outlets if they are visibly damaged, have scorch marks, feel hot to the touch, are loose, or are not functioning properly. Additionally, if your outlets are outdated and lack ground fault protection where required, it's a good idea to upgrade them for safety reasons.
What is a GFCI outlet, and where should I install one?
A GFCI outlet protects against electrical shocks by quickly shutting off power to the circuit if it detects an imbalance between the hot and neutral wires. Such outlets are crucial in areas where water and electricity may come into contact, including kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, garages, and outdoor spaces.
Can I install electrical outlets myself, or do I need a professional?
While it is possible for DIY enthusiasts to install electrical outlets themselves, hiring a professional ensures that the job is done safely and correctly. Electrical work can be hazardous and must comply with local codes and regulations. Mistakes in installation can lead to electrical fires, shocks, or other serious hazards.
