How do you dry a wet electrical outlet?

While powerwashing, water ran down the cord into the outdoor electrical outlet. Sparks flew, and the fuse "blew" into the off position on the master panel. I tried using a blowdryer, and it worked temporarily, then the fuse blew again. I tried using a fan blowing directly into the outlet also, but that does not appear to help. Do I need to call an electrician, or will it naturally dry out over time?


What happens when you paint an electrical outlet?

That depends upon how neatly you paint. If you get paint inside the slots, it could interfere with the electrical connection that is supposed to be made when you insert a plug. If you only paint the outside and get no paint inside, then there is no effect on the functioning of the outlet.ANOTHER OPTION:Child proof plastic outlet covers can be painted over when painting the actual outlet. When you want to use the outlet, remove the plastic cover. When the outlet plug is not in use, insert the child proof plastic covers. The plastic cover will blend right in with the outlet cover plate. It looks very nice with Hammered Spray Paint!
