Electrical systems aren’t something that can or should be fixed by just anyone. Unless you have the proper knowledge, training, and tools, you as a commercial facility owner could risk serious injury to yourself, and even death, if you take electrical matters into your own hands. To prevent the worst-case scenario, call on electrical experts such as our team at JLK Mechanical Heating & Cooling for your commercial electrical services needs. And to help you understand when to call the experts, here are three signs of when commercial electrical services are needed.
- Tripping breaker: The circuit breaker is responsible for protecting the electrical system from reaching dangerously high levels, which could cause electrical damage or spark a fire. Sometimes, a tripped breaker can be fixed by resetting the breaker, but any further attempts should be left to the professionals. Common issues can include damaged wires, ground faults, or short-circuiting. All of these should be handled by calling for commercial electrical services.
- Defective outlets: Outlets can get old and result in a less-than-ideal performance or a complete lack of functioning. Sometimes, other reasons for a defective outlet can be overheated wires from strong electrical currents, loose wiring, or maybe just a defective component. Whatever the reason, refrain from performing the necessary repairs yourself and call a professional.
- Heated breakers and outlets: If your breaker and/or outlets are hot to the touch, it could mean that there is an overloaded circuit. This could be a sign of a more serious problem, and you shouldn’t hesitate to call for the electrical experts.
