Your breaker keeps tripping for a reason so don’t ignore it.

Got a call from a customer whose home office breaker had been tripping for about a month. Like many homeowners, he kept resetting it but this last time he reset the breaker and fire shot out of the panel at him.

After arriving, I pulled the breaker and found burn marks on the backside of it. That breaker had been trying to tell him something was wrong for weeks.

After tracing the circuit and testing all outlets and devices to make sure everything was safe, the breaker ended up being the issue. The faulty breaker was replaced and everything tested fine.

A breaker is designed to protect your home and family. If it keeps tripping, it’s a warning sign. It could be an overloaded circuit, loose connection, failing breaker, damaged wiring, or a problem with equipment on the circuit.

Here are some warning signs you should NEVER ignore:
• Breakers tripping repeatedly
• Burning smell near outlets or panel
• Warm outlets or switches
• Flickering lights
• Buzzing sounds from outlets or breakers
• Sparks when resetting a breaker

Don’t keep resetting the problem. Fix the problem.

Electrical failures and malfunctions are responsible for tens of thousands of home fires in the U.S. every year. A breaker repeatedly tripping is your electrical system trying to tell you something is wrong.

If your breaker keeps tripping, call Reid Electric before it turns into a much bigger problem.

Early morning emergency call handled! ⚡️

Reid Electric responded to an emergency service call this morning at LongHorn Steakhouse on Abercorn after electrical issues started affecting operations. After troubleshooting and tracing the problem, found burnt wiring hidden above the ceiling that had been damaged and creating the issue.

The damaged wiring was safely removed and replaced, the system was tested for proper voltage, and everything was restored safely and properly.

Electrical issues don’t wait — and neither does Reid Electric. Whether it’s an emergency call, troubleshooting, or repairs, Reid Electric is here to get you back up and running safely.

Thank you to our customers for trusting Reid Electric! 🔧⚡️

Updating the lighting at LongHorn in Pooler today — finally getting rid of those old fluorescent lights and bringing in some bright new LEDs. 💡

Couldn’t leave without grabbing some spicy 🌶️ chicken bites though… pretty sure that’s now part of the electrical installation process. 😂

If y’all are looking for a Mother’s Day dinner spot, head over to LongHorn and don’t forget to bring your mama… she carried you for 9 months, the least you can do is buy her a steak. 🥩

Proud to help keep local businesses going strong.
