This often indicates loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a failing outlet. New Wire Electric can perform a thorough electrical inspection to diagnose the root cause—whether it's in the outlet itself, the wiring behind the wall, or your home's electrical panel. We'll then safely repair or replace the faulty components to restore safety to your home.

Frequent trips from an Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) breaker are a common issue in Katy homes, often caused by aging wiring, damaged cords, or even appliances with motors.
