Will a Home Warranty Cover Loose Outlets?
[ad#block]Home Wiring Question: My electrical outlets are loose (meaning nothing I plug stays in).
I have a home warranty plan that covers outlet failure.
I was wondering if this will cover the repair of a loose outlet.

Dave’s Reply:
Thanks for your home electrical question Anthony.
Anthony, that’s a great question.

Home Warranties and What They Do and Don’t Cover

I would think that outlet failure would refer to the availability of electrical power to the outlet.
What you are referring to is the tension strength of the outlet which may be considered normal wear and tare, but that is speculation which may depend on the age of the home etc..
