Electrical Tip:
Adding
a new outlet to a room may require a new circuit. Local and state
codes restrict the number of outlets on any normal circuit. Count
the number of outlets in your room, then cut the circuit breaker to
that room and check for available power with a portable light. Check
other rooms to see if this circuit also supports outlets outside the
immediate area of concern. Call us with the results and we'll help
you determine if you can install a new outlet or need to install a
new circuit to support the outlet.
Refrigerator
/ Freezers on Ground Fault Outlets:
Do you have a freezer or refrigerator in your garage? Check
to see if the outlet you are using is ground fault protected (GFI). A
GFI can trip during power fluctuations, leaving you with spoiled
food if you don’t happen to notice that the breaker has been
tripped. Learn More
