Q&A
My arc fault breaker keeps tripping in my Middletown home. Is this a common issue, and can you fix it?
Yes, frequent tripping of older arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) is a common issue we see in Middletown-area homes. It can be caused by normal appliance operation, worn wiring, or a sensitive breaker. Our licensed electricians can diagnose the exact cause—whether it's the breaker itself or a wiring issue—and provide a reliable fix, such as a code-compliant breaker replacement or targeted wire repair, to restore safety and convenience to your home.
I suspect rodents have chewed my wiring. What should I do, and what does the repair involve?
Rodent-damaged wiring is a serious fire hazard and is unfortunately common in our area. If you hear scratching, see droppings near wires, or have unexplained electrical issues, it's crucial to act. First, turn off power to the affected area if safe to do so. Then, call us. We will perform a thorough inspection to locate all damaged sections. Our repair involves safely removing the compromised wiring, installing new, rodent-resistant conduit or cable where possible, and ensuring your electrical system is fully safe and up to code.
