FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Austin Electrical FAQs
Answers for Austin homeowners and property owners.
Why does my GFCI outlet keep tripping?
A GFCI outlet trips when it detects current leaking to ground. Common causes are a faulty appliance or cord, moisture in a bathroom or outdoor outlet, or a GFCI that has worn out. Unplug everything and press Reset. If it trips again with nothing plugged in, leave it off and request service.
Can you replace a light fixture with a ceiling fan?
Often, yes. The electrical box must be rated to support a fan, so we check the box and wiring before installing.
How much does it cost to install a ceiling fan in Austin?
It depends on the fan, the ceiling height and whether the existing box and wiring can support it. Send photos of the ceiling and the fan for a quote.
Is a flickering light dangerous?
A loose bulb is harmless, but flickering that continues after changing the bulb, affects several lights or comes with buzzing should be checked.
