Short Circuits

When hot and neutral wires touch, causing excessive current flow. Often results in sparks, burning smells, or tripped breakers.

Our fix: Locate the short, repair damaged wiring, and replace faulty components.

Ground Faults

Occurs when a hot wire touches ground. Common in wet areas and can cause shocks.

Our fix: Install GFCI outlets and repair compromised insulation.

Open Circuits
