Q&A

My outlets in my Albuquerque home are getting very hot to the touch. What should I do, and can Reliance Electric help?

Overheated outlets are a serious fire hazard and a common issue in our area, often caused by outdated wiring, loose connections, or circuit overload. You should immediately stop using that outlet and call a professional. Reliance Electric can perform a thorough electrical inspection to diagnose the root cause, which may involve outlet repair or replacement, wire repair, or an upgrade to your electric panel to handle modern power demands safely.

My ceiling fan keeps failing or flickering. Is this a wiring problem specific to Albuquerque homes?

Ceiling fan wiring failures are a frequent call we get. Older homes here may have wiring that wasn't designed for the constant use of modern fixtures, leading to loose connections or faulty switch controls. Reliance Electric's light fixture repair service includes diagnosing and fixing the wiring at the fan box, ensuring proper installation, and checking the associated switch or outlet. We can also upgrade the wiring during a remodeling project to prevent future issues.

I'm concerned about my older home's electrical system with all our new devices. What's the best first step?

A great first step for any Albuquerque homeowner is a professional electrical inspection. This gives you a clear picture of your system's health and capacity. Reliance Electric can identify overloaded circuits, outdated panels, and potential hazards like those overheated outlets. From there, we might recommend solutions like circuit breaker installation, electric panel repair or upgrade, and adding new outlets to safely distribute power, preventing failures and protecting your home.
