Outlet Installation & Repairs

Outlets are installed in the wall to supply electricity to appliances and other devices. There are several types of outlets that are used in different locations. The most common type of outlet is a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). These are used in bathrooms, kitchens, and anywhere where water may be present. Another common type of outlet is a dimmer, which can be installed in any room of the house.

The types of outlets you will need depend on:

• Where the outlet will be installed
• The appliances that will be plugged in
• The amount of power the appliances will use
• The length of the power cord

You will need to check the capacity of your circuit to make sure it can handle the new outlet. Some appliances, like refrigerators and air conditioners, have their own circuits. Adding an outlet may overload the circuit and cause a fire hazard. Our electricians can check your home’s electrical wiring and panel to make sure there is room for the new outlet.

Signs You Need Electrical Outlet Repairs or Replacement

Electrical outlets are essential for powering your home, but over time, they can wear out or become unsafe. Knowing the signs of a faulty outlet can help you avoid potential hazards and keep your home running efficiently.

• Frequent Plug Issues: If plugs fall out or feel loose, the internal components may be worn and need repair or replacement.
• Burn Marks or Discoloration: Visible burn marks, melted plastic, or discoloration around the outlet indicate overheating or potential fire hazards.
• Sparking or Buzzing Sounds: Sparking when plugging in devices or buzzing sounds are signs of electrical arcing, which requires immediate attention.
• No Power to the Outlet: An outlet that suddenly stops working could have internal damage or loose wiring.
• Outdated or Two-Prong Outlets: Older outlets may not meet modern safety standards and should be upgraded to grounded, three-prong versions or GFCI outlets for wet areas.

At Angel Advanced Technologies, we provide expert electrical outlet repairs and replacements throughout Nags Head and the Outer Banks. Our licensed electricians ensure your home’s electrical system is safe, efficient, and up to code.

Switch Repair

Your electrical switches are a vital part of your home’s electrical system, but when they start to malfunction, it’s essential to address the issue quickly to avoid potential hazards. Here are the top signs your switches might need repair:

• Switches Feel Hot to the Touch: If a light switch feels warm or hot, it could indicate a wiring problem or an overloaded circuit. This is a serious issue that requires immediate professional attention.
• Flickering or Inconsistent Lighting: Lights that flicker or fail to respond consistently when you flip the switch may indicate loose wiring or internal damage to the switch.
• Cracks, Sparks, or Burning Smells: Visible cracks, sparks when operating the switch, or a burning smell are signs of electrical arcing or short circuits. These are safety hazards and should be repaired immediately.
• Switch Doesn’t Work Properly: If a switch fails to turn on or off completely or requires extra force to operate, it may need repair or replacement.
• Outdated Switches: Older switches may not meet current safety standards or accommodate modern devices. Upgrading can improve safety and functionality.

If you notice these issues, contact our licensed electricians to ensure your electrical system is safe and reliable.
