Infrequent shakiness might mean your large appliances are to blame. Pay attention to the patterns: Â If you notice your lights flicker consistently when large appliances such as your air conditioner are running, the problem could be that your overall voltage is fluctuating too often, or that you have too much sensory overload on the same circuit. Although slight fluctuations are normal, your home should register between 115 and 125 volts. Purchase a voltmeter at your local hardware store to gauge your home’s output, or hire an electrician to take a look.
If you’re still having problems, give us a call at Mister Sparky and we’ll stop the flickering.
