When to Call an Emergency Electrician

Not every electrical problem is an emergency. But these situations require immediate professional attention — don’t try to fix them yourself:

• Burning smell from an outlet, switch, or panel — Turn off the breaker and call immediately. This indicates arcing or overheating.
• Sparking outlet or switch — Small blue sparks when plugging in are normal. Sustained sparking, yellow/white sparks, or sparks with a burning smell are an emergency.
• Partial power loss — If you lose power to half your house but the other half still works, you likely have a lost neutral — a dangerous condition that can damage appliances and start fires.
• Water near electrical equipment — Flooding, burst pipe, or roof leak near your panel, outlets, or wiring? Don’t touch anything. Call us.
• Storm damage to your service entrance — Downed mast, loose weather head, or damaged meter base after severe weather.
• Electrical shock from an appliance or fixture — Even a mild shock indicates a wiring fault that could electrocute someone.
• Downed power line on your property — Stay 35 feet away. Call 911 first, then your utility. Read our full safety guide.
• Panel or breaker is hot to the touch — A warm breaker or panel cover is a fire hazard.

What to Do Right Now

1. If there’s a fire or immediate danger — Call 911 first.

3. Don’t touch any damaged wiring, wet outlets, or sparking equipment.
4. Call us at (320) 321-9699 — Describe what happened and we’ll advise you on immediate safety steps while we dispatch.
