Thanks for pointing out that we should call electrical systems servicing professional as soon as we have problems with fuses or circuit breakers. I guess we need to start calling those who are near us now to prevent any fire from starting. I just noticed that there is a buzzing sound coming from the breaker in the basement when I went down there earlier, so I turned it off quickly first.

I like what you said about calling an electrician if you have a blown out fuse. My circuit board freaked out and now it won't operate again. I'll have to hire an electrician to patch up whatever broke.

The inspection would still come first. Having safe electrical system requires maintenance and inspection, replacing the old ones with newer ones.
