How to replace a burned electrical wiring
When replacing burned electrical wiring, it is essential to take safety precautions and use the right tools and materials. To start: Turn off the power source (breaker box) and remove any insulation or protective covering that may conceal the wiring. Inspect the wiring to determine which wiring needs to be replaced. If possible, mark the old wires with colored tape so they can easily be identified later. Once you have determined which wire needs to be replaced, use wire strippers or a utility knife to strip back 1/2 inch of insulation from each end of the wire. Connect a new piece of insulated electrical wire from one end of the old wire cut out to one side of the circuit breaker for a power source connection. Make sure the two pieces are connected firmly using crimp connectors or pliers. At this point, you should join one end of another new insulated electrical wire from the other side of the breakers for a power source connection at one end. Then proceed by attaching it securely to either side of a switch(s) within your desired circuit. For optimal safety when working with electricity, always wear rubber-soled shoes when handling wires and attempt not to work alone if possible in case of an emergency while working on live wires. Keep metal objects away from exposed wires as they can conduct electricity and prevent electrocution or electric shock if there is contact with live current. Additionally, all exposed wires must be covered with an approved electrical conduit before turning on the power again, just in case there are potential hazards, such as short circuits needing protection.

WHY DO MY LIGHTS SOMETIMES FLICKER OR BLINK?
Blinking/flickering lights can be caused by a number of issues. The first and most easily diagnosed and fixed is a faulty or improperly secured/sized bulb. Blinking and flickering can also be caused by an inadequate number of branching circuits throughout your home or business, frayed wires, or loose connections in a breaker or meter box or even throughout the entire building. Although the latter issues are all serious and can lead to overheating and fires, it’s impossible to pinpoint the problem without an inspection by a certified electrician. If tightening or changing bulbs doesn’t resolve flickering/blinking, call Home Alliance services to arrange an inspection.
