Electrical questions, answered by experts

No. Blue wires and black wires are different. Even though both are used as hot wires, they serve different functions. Black wires are far more common in residential properties. They are always hot, can be positive or negative, and usually carry electricity from a power source to an outlet. Blue wires have a specialized usage in residential properties, generally as traveler wires, and are more common in commercial properties.

A safe home is priceless, so upgrading your electrical panel, if you need to, is always worth the cost. The primary benefit of upgrading your electrical panel is preventing fire and other electrical hazards. A malfunctioning panel can cause electrical fires and other issues if not resolved quickly, so upgrading your panel is essential to keep household members safe.

Aside from safety and increased peace of mind, this upgrade guarantees a steady flow of electricity to all corners of your home. That way, you can say goodbye to flickering lights and flipping breakers constantly. An upgraded electrical panel lets you connect additional appliances without worrying about tripping your breaker or blowing fuses.

If you find the power cables for your appliances are too short, there are ways to extend them for the cost of just the extra wiring you need. Simply cut and strip your wires, solder them together, and cover them using heat shrink tubing. Not everyone has a soldering tool on hand, so if you’re looking to extend in a pinch, an extension cord, power bar, or surge protector can do the job just fine.

If the outlet is a GFCI model, this is normal since these outlets have their own breakers that shut off when they encounter a problem—just hitting the reset button should solve the issue. Otherwise, the outlet could have bad wiring, or your circuit breaker could be having issues. If the issue started out of nowhere and is not on a GFCI outelt, it’s best to contact an electrician to diagnose the issue.

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.
