Every home has different wiring, load demands, access, and code requirements. Spark Shark Electric keeps the visit focused on the actual problem, the available options, and the written scope before work begins.
Don't reset a breaker that just tripped if you smell burning, find the cause first.
Don't pour water on an electrical fire, kill the panel main first if you can do so safely, then use a Class C extinguisher.
Don't probe an outlet or switch with anything metal.
Don't run a generator backfeed into your house through an outlet, that's a line-worker fatality risk and a fire risk.
If safe, flip the main breaker off at the panel.
Unplug major loads from the affected circuit (heaters, dryers, A/C window units).
If the smell is strong or there's smoke, leave the house and call from outside.
If you suspect the panel itself, do not stand directly in front of it; arc events can cause flash burns.
Burning smell, smoke, buzzing panels, sparking outlets, partial power loss, storm damage, or a hot panel should be handled by phone first so we can triage the situation and dispatch correctly.
