How It Works

Our Delray Beach Electrical Burning Smell Investigation Process

1

Immediate Assessment

We determine the urgency level. Active burning or visible smoke requires immediate power shutoff. We assess safety before proceeding.

2

Source Location

Using physical inspection and thermal imaging, we locate the source of overheating—panel, outlet, junction box, or appliance.

3

Root Cause Analysis

We determine WHY overheating is occurring: loose connections, overloaded circuits, failed components, or damaged wiring.

4

Damage Assessment

We evaluate whether the overheating has damaged wiring, components, or surrounding materials requiring additional repair.

5

Repair and Verification

We repair the underlying problem, replace damaged components, and verify the issue is resolved before restoring power.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about our electrical services and availability.

Yes—treat it as an emergency. Burning smell means overheating is occurring, which can progress to fire. Turn off power if you can identify the source (breaker for that area), and call for investigation. Don't wait until morning or Monday.
Often like burning plastic—acrid and chemical. Sometimes described as 'fishy' or like urine (burning electrical components produce this odd smell). Any unusual burning odor near electrical equipment warrants investigation.
If you can identify where the smell is coming from, turn off the breaker for that circuit. If the smell is from the panel or you can't locate the source, turn off the main breaker. Don't restore power until the problem is found and fixed.
Common causes: loose connections (most common), overloaded circuits, failing components, damaged wiring, improper installations. All create resistance that converts electricity to heat—potentially enough to ignite fires.
Intermittent smell may only occur under load. We investigate under various conditions—lights on, HVAC running, high-use times—to find problems that only appear during specific circumstances.
Possibly. HVAC systems, appliances, and other sources can produce burning smells. We help determine whether the source is electrical or point you to appropriate help if it's not.
