4- Need a Second Opinion?
- At Caddell Electric, we understand that spending
thousands of dollars can be unexpected. We
recommend getting a second opinion for any large
job. Even a third opinion is a good idea.
Upgrading or adding to your existing electrical
system is a major decision. Here are some things
to look for when comparing estimates. - Are all companies reputable and members of the
Better Business Bureau? - Have you compared the B.B.B reports and checked
for complaints? - Are all estimates for the exact same work. Make
sure you are comparing apples to apples. - Check warranty information. How long a company
stands behind their work is often a good criteria
for decision making. - Are all estimates relatively close in price?
There is an industry average for electrical work.
Bids that appear to be too high should really be
examined closely.
5Electrical System THIS IS THE HEART OF YOUR
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND SHOULD BE INSPECTED YEARLY
We specialize in electrical panels, meter bases,
and code compliance issues. If you feel that your
electrical system needs to be inspected by one of
our licensed electricians, please contact us
today by calling 214-329-4567 or submit an online
request form. NOTE Have you heard of a Federal
Pacific or Zinsco electrical panel? Has someone
told you Your breaker box is dangerous? Did you
know that these Stab-Lock breakers can fail to
trip? Federal Pacific and Zinsco breaker boxes
are no longer UL listed and should be
replaced Caddell Electric is not implying that
if you own Stab Lock designed breakers your
home will burn. It is however, safe to say that
if you do in fact own this type of breaker, have
a short circuit, and it fails to trip, the
potential for a fire is great.
6- The Facts
- December is the most dangerous month for
electrical fires. Fire deaths are highest in
winter months which call for more indoor
activities and increase in lighting, heating, and
appliance use. Most electrical wiring fires start
in the bedroom. - The Cause
- Electrical Wiring
- Most electrical fires result from problems with
fixed wiring such as faulty electrical outlets
and old wiring. Problems with cords and plugs,
such as extension and appliance cords, also cause
many home electrical fires.In urban areas,
faulty wiring accounts for 33 of residential
electrical fires.Many avoidable electrical fires
can be traced to misuse of electric cords, such
as overloading circuits, poor maintenance and
running the cords under rugs or in high traffic
areas. - Home Appliances
- The home appliances most often involved in
electrical fires are electric stoves and ovens,
dryers, central heating units, televisions,
radios and record players.
7- Safety Precautions
- Routinely check your electrical appliances and
wiring. - Frayed wires can cause fires. Replace all worn,
old or damaged appliance cords immediately. - Use electrical extension cords wisely and dont
overload them. - Keep electrical appliances away from wet floors
and counters pay special care to electrical
appliances in the bathroom and kitchen. - When buying electrical appliances, look for
products evaluated by a nationally recognized
laboratory, such as - Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
- Dont allow children to play with or around
electrical appliances like space heaters, irons
and hair dryers. - Keep clothes, curtains and other potentially
combustible items at least three feet from all
heaters. - If an appliance has a three-prong plug, use it
only in a three-slot outlet. Never force it to
fit into a two-slot outlet or extension cord. - Never overload extension cords or wall sockets.

light switches, that are hot to the touch, and
lights that flicker. Use safety closures to
child-proof electrical outlets. - Check your electrical tools regularly for signs
of wear. If the cords are frayed or cracked,
replace them. Replace any tool if it causes even
small electrical shocks, overheats, shorts out or
gives off smoke or sparks.
