While most problems with electricity involve the power supply, there are still many other factors. You should not tamper with circuit breakers or other electrical works without adequate knowledge. Amateur intervention in electrical works can pose a lot of dangers.
Power Trips or Failure: Causes
One reason for a power outage is that it can happen for several reasons. This can be annoying, but it is actually a sign that your circuit breakers have been working. This is to stop electricity from flowing if the load exceeds the capacity of the circuit breaker.
Circuit overload is when an appliance requires more electricity. An example of circuit overload is when an appliance uses 20 amps and the circuit has only a 12-amp rating.
A short circuit is when an electric current-carrying wire (hot wire), touches another wire. This is when the circuit cannot handle the heat created by the electric current. This is what causes the power trip.
A ground fault is a condition that is very similar to a short-circuit, except that the hot wire does not touch another wire.

How to save more energy at home and at work
Many electrical devices are essential for the proper functioning of our homes and offices. It also means that these devices will consume more energy to work in homes and offices that have added devices for entertainment or luxury.
These are some tips to help you save electricity while still enjoying the benefits of electric devices in your home or office.
Regular Equipment Servicing
Preventive maintenance is more cost-effective than replacements and repairs. It will prolong the life of your device, as well as ensure that it doesn’t consume too many resources. If your office uses a lot of electricity, it is worth calling a Singaporean electrician to conduct regular inspections. Regular servicing should be scheduled for all equipment such as air conditioners and computers. This will ensure that they work efficiently. An electrician can also give advice on how to properly run your equipment and conserve energy.
Make sure to clean your appliances
Your washer, fridge, and air conditioner will all need to be cleaned regularly to save energy and reduce fire dangers. Overheating can cause a reduction in performance and increase energy consumption. To keep your appliances in top condition, you should clean your washer and dryer before you load the clothes. Consider replacing equipment that is more than ten years old with energy-efficient models.
CFL Lightbulbs
To save energy, you should consider replacing your incandescent bulbs (CFLs) with compact fluorescent lightbulbs. Ask an electrician to calculate how much energy you are currently using and then compare it to the amount you will need to switch to CFL. An electrician service company can replace your office’s lightbulbs with special CFLs that are cheaper and last longer than regular bulbs.
Energy Star Labels
You should consider purchasing more electronic devices if your company plans to purchase them. Equipment that has an Energy Star label means it has passed all the standards and tests for energy efficiency. Ask the electrician whether you need to replace older equipment to reduce your electric bills. To avoid overloading, it is a good idea to hire a Singaporean electrician to help you buy additional equipment.
Smart Switches
Although motion-sensing switches and occupancy sensors may seem expensive, they can help companies save money. They turn on the lights only when they are needed. This means you only pay for the energy you use. Smart switches are a smart option if you plan to renovate or upgrade your office. Consult a Singaporean electrician to find the best solution.
Do Not Use Unplug Devices
Remind employees to unplug any devices that aren’t being used. This will help save energy at the office. To ensure that printers and copiers are not left on during the weekend or after work hours, you might also want to install timers. As any electrician will tell, some appliances in your home have power strips that can still consume energy, even after you turn them off. Make it a habit of checking the house for unplugged devices before you go to bed. Standby mode gadgets still use 10% of energy.
