Our house has a circuit breaker box in the bad bedroom where the

if a circuit box has an odor to it because sometimes I could swear that
I can smell electricity in the air, but I can't really pinpoint where
it's coming from. It's been like this for the entire time we've lived here.


How can you "smell electricity" in a "bad bedroom"? Heck I can't even
see electricity, but I am really afraid of it. :-\


I don't know how I can smell electricity. It's the "back" bedroom.
sheesh. I need to wake up! Sorry for the typo.

I was just poking at ya. You could be smelling scorched wires or
something. Your box needs a closer inspection or maybe an outlet or
switch on the walls. Would be my guess, but I'm not an electrician.
