Challenges our Fault-Finding Electrician face

The biggest challenge our Fault-Finding Electrician faces are those that are either intermittent, concealed within wiring, have a very small current leakage or are caused by discreet damage to insulation. These hard-to-find scenarios take ElectricsFixed Fault-Finding Electrician skills to the next level.

When something is sporadic in its frequency, should the problem not be active during our presence it presents a great challenge. Some current leaks are incredibly subtle and therefore may not trigger a circuit breaker. This does not mean it is not a hazardous situation and still requires remedial action. When damaged wires are obscured behind walls or ceilings the physical access can pose a challenge. Often invasive techniques will have to be used. Small cracks to the insulation of your wiring can cause what’s known as arcing. This is when electricity jumps from one connection to another. It can also cause short circuiting both of which are visually hard to observe. 

Further steps taken by ElectricsFixed in hard-to-find cases
