Electrical troubleshooting involves checking for issues in an electrical system and repairing them.

Some common electrical problems include: 

• Flickering lights

  Can be a sign of loose wiring, circuit overloads, or improper bulbs. Flickering lights can lead to overheating or sparking in the walls. 

• Faulty switches

  Outlets and switches are important for routing electricity to appliances. 

• Circuit overloads

  When too many devices are connected to a single circuit, it can cause the circuit breaker to trip frequently. Circuit overloads can also lead to electrical fires. 

• Buzzing

  Loose prongs, outlets, or fraying wire can cause the current to jump, which produces a buzzing sound. 

• Frequent bulb burnouts

  Make sure the light bulb is the correct wattage, high quality, and screwed in correctly. If the problem persists, there may be a loose or faulty wire. 

• Intermittent power loss

  A tripped breaker is a common cause of power issues. Inspect the breaker and surrounding wiring to identify potential faults. 

To troubleshoot electrical issues, some of the things North Springs Electric might do are:

• Check for continuity, voltage, current, resistance, or power 

• Compare the readings with the specifications, manuals, or diagrams 

• Trace the circuits or components from the source to the load 

• Look for signs of damage, corrosion, loose connections, or overheating 

• After making repairs, we verify that the device works properly by starting the system and checking the temperatures and voltage readings
