Today’s visit was to take a look at a broken dimmer switch. When I arrived, I took a look at the switch, which was not turning on the living room recessed lights. I also took a look at the main electrical panel, which had some corrosion present as well as paint in the interior. The service cable entering the home is very damaged on the exterior, to the point that the sheathing is almost entirely gone. I brought this to the homeowner’s attention, and she told me that she was already aware. I also saw that most of the receptacles/switches in the home were more original and some were painted over/damaged. The homeowner declined any solutions for a whole-home redevice and/or panel replacement and exclusively wanted me to replace the dimmer switch with a rotary-style dimmer. I picked up a replacement rotary dimmer and replaced the broken one, all dimmers for the living room are now working well. - removal and replacement of broken dimmer switch controlling living room recessed lights
