If you are experiencing an electrical issue in your home, it’s always good to know how to turn the power off at the electrical panel breaker box. An electrical panel is a gray box with rows of switches that control electricity for various areas of your house or apartment. These are often located in a garage, utility room, or on an exterior wall of your home.
Not sure what to do, call MANNS Electric Corp. One of our experts will provide some guidance and determine if we should send one of our licensed residential electricians out to your home.

CEILING FANS AND LIGHT FIXTURES
A ceiling fan circulates warm and cool air throughout a room to increase comfort and decrease energy consumption. These fans come in many different styles and are available with a variety of features. They are a great addition to any home! Before having an electrician out to install a new light fixture or ceiling fan, be sure to make sure the area is clean and clear of debris.
Choosing a fan with a style that coordinates well with your space will help to complete the look of the room and make it more welcoming. A ceiling fan can also help increase your home’s energy efficiency by circulating air and creating a natural breeze.
Depending on your ceiling and where you want it installed, you may need to use a special down rod for your new fan. The down rod will extend the distance from the fan blades to the ceiling, and you want to ensure it is at an appropriate angle for your space.
Call MANNS Electric Corp today to get your new light fixture or ceiling fan properly installed.

Outlets Come Loose or Are Broken
If you see outlets coming loose, it could be a sign that the receptacles are worn out. This may require replacing the outlet itself, as well as the wiring connecting to it.
Breakers Tripped or Blown Fuse
If you’re constantly tripping a circuit breaker or blowing a fuse, that’s probably a sign of an overload in your wiring. You can usually fix this by replacing the fuse, but a professional will be able to tell you if it’s caused by something else, such as faulty circuit wiring.
Broken GFCI Outlets and Breakers
If you’re getting frequent warnings that your outlet’s ground fault circuit interrupter is broken, it’s time to replace that receptacle. This is especially true if you live in an area that experiences frequent moisture, such as bathrooms or kitchens.
Upgrading Your Panel
Replacing your panel can increase the safety of your home, prevent electrical fires, and improve the performance of your electronics and appliances. It can also give your aging electrical system the capacity and reliability it needs to meet the demands of modern technology.
ELECTRICAL PANELS
Your electrical panel is where all the circuits in your home connect to, so if you need to make a major upgrade to your panel, contact a licensed residential electrician immediately.
A residential electrician can upgrade the voltage to your existing breaker panel to help it handle future needs. This is especially helpful if you plan to add a second floor or expand your living space in any way.
It can also be beneficial if you want to add a hot tub, pool, or any other piece of equipment that requires extra electricity. A licensed electrician will be able to get the right permit for your project, so you don’t risk the safety of yourself or your family.
Another thing to keep in mind is that it’s a good idea to have your panel upgraded every 25 years or so. This is to ensure that your electrics are in line with industry standards and are not dangerous.

Re-wiring a home is typically very invasive and labor-intensive. It can involve tearing down walls to access the wires.
Many old homes and apartments have outdated electrical systems that violate current codes, putting people at risk for shock and fire. These older systems may increase the chances of electrical fires.
In addition, they may have a crowded breaker box that could cause an arc flash or lead to an electrical fire. An experienced electrician can determine if your system is too crowded and recommend an upgrade.
Increasing your electricity can also allow you to do things like install a security camera or upgrade your heating and cooling systems. This can be an expensive upgrade, but it will pay for itself in the long run by saving you money on your energy bills.
