Outlet & Switch Safety

Often, people think that replacing an electrical outlet is a simple DIY project. This can be a dangerous assumption, especially if the person is not well versed and comfortable working with electrical wiring. If you are not trained to work with electricity, it is important you hire an electrician. McCormick Electrical Services Inc. will help you complete the task safely and professionally.

We suggest calling us for outlet and/or switch repair or replacement in South Bend when:

• The outlet or switch is no longer functioning
• The faceplate of the outlet is warm to hot
• There is often a spark when using the plug
• The outlet won’t hold a plug in it
• The breakers trip when using that specific outlet
• The GFCI test you conducted failed
• There is a strange rotten egg smell near your outlets

If your outlet or switch is experiencing any of the above symptoms, call McCormick Electrical Services Inc. for a service appointment.

What is a GFCI Outlet?

GFCIs, or ground fault circuit interrupters, are a type of electrical outlet that helps to prevent electrocution. They work by monitoring the current flowing through the circuit and quickly shutting off the power if they detect an imbalance. This makes them ideal for locations where there is a risk of water exposure, such as bathrooms and kitchens. GFCIs can also be beneficial in older homes, as they can help to prevent shocks from outdated wiring. For maximum protection, it is best to install GFCIs in all areas of the home where there is a potential for water exposure and not just the minimum required to stay up to code.

Dimmers & Lighting Control 

We also carry a large variety of switches and lighting control options, including dual dimmer switches. Not sure which one is the best for your home? McCormick Electrical Services Inc. can walk you through the many options that can complement any space. You can add functionality, ambiance, and convenience to your home with professional dimmer installation.
