Diagnosing Common Home Electrical Problems
Home electrical problems can be diagnosed most commonly as one of several issues. The most common is faulty wiring that may have been caused by improper installation, damage from rodents or other pests, or simply wear and tear over time. Sometimes you can see a scorch mark in an outlet or find tripped circuit breakers at the panel to indicate a potential problem. If you frequently have a tripped circuit breaker, call an electrician to run diagnostics and testing to isolate the problem and resolve it safely. Ignoring electrical issues can pose a fire hazard so it’s best to address it as soon as possible.
