Fault Finding

Electricians For Fault Finding

Electrical systems are prone to wear and tear like any other system. Ensure your safety and protect your property by hiring a certified electrician to complete the diagnostics of any electrical faults you might have!

Electrical faults can be caused by extreme weather, human errors, malfunctioning appliances, structural issues with the property (like a leaking roof), rodent activity, etc. 

And if a blown light bulb or a broken ceiling fan can “wait” to be addressed, some electrical problems need immediate attention.

The most common electrical faults we’ve been called out as a matter of urgency by customers are due to the following electrical problems:

• Electrical surges - These can lead to costly damage to your circuit breaker or other electrical outlets in your home or place of business.
• Intermittent wiring faults - The electrician will carefully investigate where exactly the problem is and will suggest the best course of action.
• Electrical shock issues - If you experience an electrical shock when you try to plug in something, you should call a professional electrician right away.
• Voltage drop - There could be a number of reasons behind this issue, such as an increased load, due to too many connections and electrical components using power.
• Malfunctioning fuse board - This can be caused even by a single faulty electrical appliance.
• Open circuit - The lack of an electrical current between two terminals is caused by incomplete electrical circuits.
• Short circuit - Your fault-finding service provider will diagnose why a safety fuse has blown.
• Insulation breakdowns (damaged wiring insulation) - The electrician will check for dangerous live wiring, where the protective insulation has been damaged.
