In today’s modern homes and businesses, the demand for electrical devices has surged, meaning that the availability of appropriately positioned power sockets is required more than ever, not just for convenience but also more importantly ensuring your safety!
Relying on extension leads or overloaded sockets can be extremely hazardous, increasing the likelihood of overheating, short circuits and potential electrical fires.
At Electrisafe, your trusted local electrician in Bournemouth, we specialise in installing additional sockets exactly where you need them, enhancing both efficiency and safety within your environment.
Over time, sockets can become damaged or worn, leading to potential hazards such as loose connections, overheating and unreliable power supply.
Indicators that your sockets may require replacement include:
⚠️Physical Damage: Cracks, chips, or discoloration of the socket can compromise your safety.
⚠️Poor Plug Retention: Sockets that no longer hold your plugs or chargers securely can lead to intermittent connection issues.
⚠️Sparking or Overheating: Visible sparks scorch marks or excessive heat are clear signs of a safety hazard.
⚠️Burning Smell: A burning smell can indicate overheating or faulty wiring.
⚠️Buzzing Noises: Unusual sounds from a socket could be a wiring problem or product failure.
⚠️Frequent Tripping: Regularly tripped breakers on your consumer unit linked to a specific socket may highlight an internal issue with the socket.
If you notice any of these issues, it’s important to consult a qualified electrician promptly to ensure your electrics are fully safe and reliable.
