Is your socket not working?


 Imagine coming home after a long journey and realising that your plug socket isn't working - no matter how hard you try. This can be overwhelming and annoying at the same time, especially if the outlet controls your air conditioner or fan. Your first thought is probably to call an electrician or a professional for electrical services or electrical repairs to fix the problem. However, before you decide to call an electrician, you should do a little research on your outlet and why it has stopped working.

What is a power socket?

An electrical outlet, also known as a wall socket or electrical plug, is installed in the wall by an electrician or electrical service team to plug in your electrical appliances. Sockets can vary in size, shape and voltage capacity depending on what you want to plug into the socket.

Reasons why your socket doesn't seem to be working

Dealing with a problematic socket can be a nuisance. That's why we've listed below various reasons why it may not be working.

Tripped circuit breaker

Most electricians say that a tripped circuit breaker is one of the most common causes of your outlet not working. If your circuit breaker has tripped, it may have also disconnected the other sockets from the mains. Check to see if other outlets are working, and if not, the problem is with your circuit breaker. To fix the problem, call an electrical service or electrical repair shop. Remember to unplug all wires from the outlets before attempting to restart your circuit breaker

New wiring required

Remember when you last serviced your outlet. Often, outlets stop working because the wiring is old and worn. Faulty wiring causes many problems such as humming or popping noises, burning odours and flickering lights. Before the problem gets worse, call a reliable repair service or a trusted electrician for help.

Interrupted or poor connection

It is also possible that your socket has a broken or poor connection, which is why it no longer works. Most sockets are installed with a socket. It is therefore possible that your socket has a problem, which is why the socket no longer works.
