Don't Fear Broken Bulbs

Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
The dreaded broken bulb! Whether the kids were throwing the football in the house, a 7’ tall friend clocked it standing up at dinner, or an earthquake hit, it seems like everyone’s gotta deal with this at least once in their life. With broken glass and exposed electrical contacts, it can seem to be a pretty intimidating job, but with the power off (or totally unplugged) and a pair of needle-nose pliers, you can save yourself $100+ by tackling this simple repair yourself. We’ll even throw in a little advice if your sockets are causing you problems!
