- Avoid DIY Repairs: Electrical repairs can be dangerous, especially if you’re not trained to handle wiring or circuit breakers. Always call a professional for repairs.
- Watch for Warning Signs: Keep an eye out for flickering lights, warm outlets, or frequent breaker trips, which can signal underlying issues that need repair.
