TROUBLESHOOTING A FAULTY ELECTRICAL OUTLET

If you notice that your outlet is not supplying power like it should, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue. These steps include:

If the outlet is switch-controlled, start by making sure the switch is in the “on” position.
If other outlets on the same wall are dead as well, it may mean that the entire circuit is dead. Go to your breaker panel, locate the circuit breaker that corresponds with the dead outlets, and flip it off then back on once.
If you have a GFCI outlet anywhere in the circuit and it has been tripped, power to any outlet downstream of the GFCI outlet will be cut off. Locate the switch on your GFCI outlet and press the “on/off” button to reactivate it.
If nothing has worked up to this point, there may be a loose wire in your outlet. With the power off, check to make sure that all the wires to the outlet are securely connected. If you don’t feel comfortable reconnecting the wires to your outlet, you can call a Los Angeles electrician to perform the repair.

If all the wires are connected properly and the outlet is still not functioning, you will need to have electric outlet installers replace the faulty outlet.
