Power outlets are used to power lighting, appliances, and devices. If you need a new electrical point installed or an old one replaced, contact our electricians now for an affordable price quote.
Why get power point installation service?
Power sockets keep our appliances running and devices charged. The rise of work from home and the increase in the number of electronic devices owned by each person has made convenient access to multiple power outlets necessary. Too few power points are available in most properties, especially those built more than ten years ago.
Most people resort to extension plugs and cables to solve the problem. But what they end up with is a messy environment with wires stretched around the room. Installing new sockets is the best long-term solution to this problem. It is safe and neat, and it may even increase the value of your property when it comes time to sell it.
Our electricians can install additional power sockets. Please speak to our installation team at 9070 6060 for more information. When you are ready, you can book an appointment to install your power points with them. We may have same-day appointment slots available to book.
Why your power socket stopped working
A few common problems could cause a power socket to stop working as it should. These problems can lead to the socket becoming an electrocution or fire hazard. We will explain a few of these problems in the following paragraphs.
Overloaded Circuit
Overloading occurs when the amount of electricity flowing to the devices or appliances plugged into a circuit exceeds what the circuit can safely handle. When your sockets overload the circuit, the circuit breaker will trip to prevent damage to the circuit. If a circuit remains overloaded, the socket and the wires may melt or burn.
Open Circuit
Electrical current cannot flow in an open circuit. When a power socket circuit is open, the sockets on that circuit will not work as the electrical current does not flow through the device plugged into the socket.
Short Circuit
Short circuits occur when electricity flows through an unintended path with lower resistance. Short circuits are dangerous because they cause a sharp increase in current. A short circuit will cause the circuit breaker to trip to prevent overheating and damage to the circuit. The wiring for the socket and the appliance or device plugged into the socket can cause a short circuit.
Faulty Outlet
Power outlets are made of moving parts and have multiple connection points. These parts and points are susceptible to wear and tear with use. The switch mechanism and wire connection are the two parts most prone to failure. If your outlet stopped working because it is faulty, replacing the outlet with a new approved set should fix the problem.
