Common Wiring Issues We Solve
Tripped Breakers That Won’t Reset
If a breaker keeps tripping, it’s often doing its job to protect against electrical faults. We’ve solved countless cases like a recent one in a Gray, TN home built with knob and tube wiring. After hours of troubleshooting, we traced the problem to worn-out insulation grounding against a gas line. It was a challenging job, but perseverance led to a safe and happy resolution for the client.
Mis-Wired Circuits
Have you experienced lights or switches that only work under specific conditions, like one room’s lights only functioning when another light is on? These types of problems point to wiring that’s been incorrectly installed. We have the skills and experience to safely and effectively untangle these circuits, leaving your system working like it should.
Flickering Lights
A flickering light might seem minor, but it could indicate worn-out switches or underlying wiring issues. Recently, a homeowner called to show us a flickering light while we were on-site for plumbing. A quick inspection revealed the light switch was falling apart from years of use. Within minutes, we installed a new, high-quality switch, restoring their lighting to full functionality.
Outlets Not Working Throughout the House
One of our most intriguing cases involved outlets failing all over a house even though no breakers had tripped. It turned out a tree branch had knocked out one side of the incoming power line. Our keen troubleshooting uncovered the issue right away, and after we diagnosed it, the utility company swiftly restored full service.
Knob and Tube Wiring? Give Us a Call ASAP!
If your home still has knob and tube wiring, it’s crucial to consider an upgrade. This type of wiring, common in homes from the early 20th century, is often the culprit of electrical problems due to insulation breakdown. We urge homeowners in East Tennessee to replace it, not only for safety but also because many insurance companies may deny coverage on homes with this outdated system.
