What to check
- Note whether it is a single light, several lights in one room or lights across the house.
- Record whether it starts when an appliance turns on or when a dimmer is adjusted.
- Share what changed recently, such as a new bulb, dimmer or fixture. Leave switches, fixtures and the panel closed.
When to stop
Stop using the affected device if there is heat, buzzing, a burning smell or visible damage. If you see smoke or fire, leave and call 911 from a safe place.
