Questions about finding and fixing an outage

How can you find the cause of an outage?

Voltage testing helps GMB Electric locate where power stops in the electrical system. The pattern of affected rooms and equipment helps direct the search. We use the findings to identify the fault and discuss the work needed. If the problem points to the incoming supply, the utility may also need to investigate its side.

What should I do if I smell burning near the panel for Power Outage Troubleshooting?

A burning smell near a panel can signal a fire risk, so keep away from it. We can assess the electrical problem after you've moved to a safe place. Don't touch the panel or try to reset a breaker. If you see smoke or fire, leave the building and call emergency services.

Which details should I share before an assessment for Power Outage Troubleshooting?

The affected rooms and equipment give us useful details before an outage assessment.

Tell us where power is out and where it still works.
Describe any breaker trips or unusual sounds.
Let us know who can provide access to the panel.

These details help us understand the problem before work begins. You don't need to diagnose the fault yourself.

When should I call the utility about lost power for Power Outage Troubleshooting?

A wider outage affecting nearby properties is a reason to contact the utility. The utility can check its supply, while we assess problems within your property. A working light elsewhere in your building doesn't prove where the fault is. Tell us what still works and we'll determine which parts of the system need attention.

Can I replace a tripped breaker myself for Power Outage Troubleshooting?

No, leave breaker replacement to our electrical team. A breaker can trip because of a fault elsewhere on the circuit, so replacing it without finding the cause doesn't address that problem. Don't remove the panel cover or keep resetting a breaker that trips again. We'll assess the circuit and explain the repair that fits our findings.

Does finding the fault mean the repair is included?

A diagnosis identifies the fault, and the repair is the work needed to correct it. We discuss the proposed repair and its scope before you decide whether to proceed. The work could involve a circuit, an outlet, or another electrical part. Ask us for a quote based on the fault we find.
