Evolution Electric & Solar | Certified Electrical Company in Escondido, CA

This is a common local problem due to water intrusion in outdoor outlets. Over time, weather seals degrade, allowing moisture to cause short circuits and corrosion. We inspect the outlet housing, wiring, and GFCI protection, then repair or replace components with weather-resistant materials rated for our climate. Proper sealing and upgrading to modern, waterproof outlets typically resolves this issue and improves safety.

Adding solar to an existing home starts with a detailed assessment of your roof structure, electrical panel capacity, and energy usage. We handle the full process: designing a system, securing permits, installing roof-mounted panels or shingles, integrating with your electrical panel, and connecting to the grid. For older homes, a panel upgrade is often recommended to handle the new solar input. Our goal is a seamless installation that maximizes your energy production and qualifies for available incentives.

A sudden drop in production often points to wiring faults in the inverter or connection points, another issue we see locally. Dust, thermal cycling, or pests can loosen connections. We perform a systematic check of the inverter display for error codes, test DC and AC voltage at key connections, and inspect wiring for damage or corrosion. Most faults are repairable on-site, restoring your system to optimal output quickly.
