• Electricians will ensure the outlet is up to code and will pass inspection.
• An electrician will check that the outlet works in conjunction with the circuit breaker to its handling capacity.

An electrical outlet may stop working because: 

• The circuit to your outlet has tripped. 
• Your GFCI outlet has tripped. 
• Your outlet has loose or faulty wiring. 

If your outlet is a GFCI outlet, you should check all other appliances and outlets on the circuit to see if there are any with damaged wiring that may have caused the GFCI to trip. To learn more about getting your electrical outlet inspected and repaired, call us today. 

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a light fixture is. However, the wiring will have to be modified to support the fan’s operation and a support bracket will need to be installed to hold the weight of the fan. If you want to install a ceiling fan where a light fixture is, it is best to have a licensed electrician perform the installation. An electrician will be able to ensure that the wiring is correct and that the installation is done properly. To find out more about getting a ceiling fan installed in your home, contact us today.
