ELECTRICAL PROBLEM RIGHT NOW? DO THIS FIRST.

If something feels unsafe, prioritize safety before anything else:

If you see sparking, smell burning, or hear buzzing—stop using the affected switch/outlet immediately.

Turn off power at the breaker for the affected area (only if it’s safe).

Keep children/pets away from the problem area.

If there’s smoke or active fire risk, call emergency services first.

For non-emergency issues (flickering lights, dead outlet, tripping breaker), schedule a professional assessment.
