Get to know your electrical panel....a little knowledge can go a long way.
You likely have a main electrical panel in your basement. Inside this panel are breakers which are probably labeled – or at least we hope so. Be very careful around your electrical panel and consider having a licensed electrician help if you aren’t comfortable, but take the time to learn what the breakers control and how to shut them off.
What I’ve found is that the labels are either inaccurate or very general – things like “main bedroom” or “dining area”. However, they can control outlets or light switches in completely different rooms. Some breakers control your stove, your furnace, possibly your AC or water heater. There may come a time when you need to turn these off for safety reasons or when they may be tripped for a malfunction and you need to reset them.
A few minutes up front to get organized, labeled, and up to speed on your electrical panel can go a long way for when you need that information.
