Question Answers

My smart light switches are flickering or not responding. Could this be a wiring issue you can fix?

Yes, absolutely. Flickering or unresponsive smart devices are a common sign of wiring malfunctions, especially with newer smart home integrations. Our team at New Mexico Electric and Controls can diagnose the issue, whether it's an incorrect load, a faulty connection at the switch, or a problem with the home's broader electrical system. We'll repair or rewire the circuit to ensure your smart lighting operates safely and reliably.

I noticed an outlet in my Albuquerque home is warm to the touch. Is this dangerous, and what should I do?

An overheated outlet is a serious safety concern that should not be ignored, as it can indicate overloaded circuits, loose wiring, or a failing outlet. For your safety, we recommend turning off power to that circuit at the breaker panel and calling us immediately. Our electricians will perform a thorough inspection, which often includes checking the circuit breaker and the electrical panel, to identify the root cause and make the necessary repairs or replacements to prevent a potential fire hazard.

Can you upgrade my electrical panel to handle new smart home devices and prevent overheating problems?

Definitely. Older electrical panels in Albuquerque homes often can't handle the added demand of modern smart devices, leading to overloads and overheating. We specialize in electric panel installation and upgrades. By installing a new, higher-capacity panel, we ensure your home's electrical system has the safe, stable power it needs for all your current and future devices, effectively preventing the overheating issues common with outdated systems.
