A piggyback circuit breaker, also known as a tandem or double-stuff breaker, combines two separate circuits into a single slot in a breaker panel. This design allows adding more circuits without a larger panel, making it a space-saving solution. Each breaker in the piggyback unit operates independently, protecting two circuits in one standard breaker slot. This is especially useful in older panels with limited space for additional breakers.

The process of hiring a reliable electrician begins by searching for local professionals and verifying that they hold a master electrician certification and the proper licensing for your area. After that, you should read through reviews from past customers to see the kind of service you can expect from the contractor, as well as look at the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to check for a history of company complaints. You can also ask for customer references to make sure you’re choosing a reputable professional.

No, it is not safe to use an outlet that sparked. A spark from an outlet could indicate a short circuit, loose or frayed wiring, or other serious damage. Continuing to use an outlet that sparks can increase the risk of electrical shock, electrical fires, and other hazards. It's important to turn off the power to the outlet at the circuit breaker if possible and avoid using the outlet until a licensed electrician has inspected and repaired it.

Electrical codes require GFCI outlets in areas where ground faults are more common, usually around water. That includes garages, kitchen counters, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basements. All of these require at least one GFCI outlet in the room, and some codes require every outlet in a specific area to be GFCI.

Outlets do wear out, usually within 15-25 years, but they can fail even sooner than that —sometimes in a matter of years. If your plugs always slide out after you put them in, this is a sign your outlets need to be replaced. Additionally, if your outlets are damaged, cracked, discolored, or regularly tripping the circuit breaker, they may be at the end of their life.
