How to Know When Your Switch Needs to Be Replaced

As with any piece of equipment, switches too will eventually need to be replaced over time. Knowing when it's time to replace a switch is essential to prevent any inconvenience or further damage.

Signs that it may be time to replace your switch include:

• Buzzing or clicking noises: If you hear buzzing, clicking, or any other strange sounds from your switch, it may be time to replace it. The sound may be due to an electrical charge jumping between the interior of the switch rather than flowing from one piece to another. Call our electricians for service as this can become a fire hazard.
• Warmth: If your light switch is warm or hot to the touch, this can be a sign of loose wiring or a short circuit. Contact our team for an inspection.
• Changes in resistance: When you flip your switch, there sound be a slight resistance. However, if it loses its normal resistance or becomes too difficult to flip, this is a sign it needs to be replaced.

Be sure to keep an eye out for these signs to be sure your switches are functioning correctly and to avoid any further complications. When you notice a problem, don’t hesitate to call for our switch services in South Shore. Our electricians will thoroughly investigate your issue and promptly replace your switch to have it functioning normally once again.
