We will disconnect the connections from the upper panel and use a mechanical lug splice to reconnect the circuits and ensure proper safety and terminations throughout. Once the proper connections are made we will insulation tape the splice and then finally electrically tape it to ensure there is no chance of failure. In the sub-panel where the breaker for the circuit originates we will change the breaker out to ensure no potential failure of it in the future. Customer has been made aware of the FPE panel inside the home and given a quote for correcting this.

The reason for today’s visit was to diagnose a power loss issue in the bedrooms. We saw a huge amount of original devices in the home as well as improperly wired devices. We wrote recommendations on replacement of devices to fix the issues at hand and provided the solutions as well. We also saw a 200 amp Bryant panel with many signs of hazards. These hazards included shared branch circuits, shared neutrals, double tapped grounds and neutrals and shared circuit breakers. At this time customer would like to think it over and will contact if moving forward.

Installation of new 3-way switch located at the top of stairs on the quad switch bank that controls chandelier . We were called out today to look at smoke detectors that were chirping. Customer explained to us that he had just replaced all the units in his house and that one was chirping. We de-energized the smoke detector circuit, disconnected the units and opened their battery doors, and still heard the chirping. We determined that the chirping was caused by a plug-in carbon monoxide unit that was failing. While assessing the panel we also noted signs of overheating wires caused by multi wire branch circuits not on 2-pole breakers. We provided a quote to replace single pole breakers feeding multi wire branch circuits with 2-pole breakers. While on site we also replaced a three-way switch controlling the foyer light at the top of the stairs that was not working.

The customer originally called because they wanted some information about attic fans for this particular style of home we would have to go through the roof to install the attic fan due to the size of the attic is my recommendation that we install two attic fans to get the customer the most effective source of fresh air in the attic to cool it down better to help with the temperature on the third floor The attic drains that we recommend are cool breeze Smart attic fans which have the ability to hook up to your phone so you can change the temperature Setting for the attic fan and there are three settings low medium high where you can set the temperates to kick on the attic fan this is important because with other attic fans they will just turn on at a high temperature and use a lot of energy and also stressful for the motor and it takes a longer time for that attic to cool off. During my safety analysis I wanted to make sure that the electrical panels were in good condition so if we ad

Starting the inspection i started at the electrical panel and found that in panel 1(left) i found double tapped neutrals(where neutral wires are under the same lug as another neutral/ground wire) and white colored wires on breakers(needs to be color coded to indicate a hot wire). All basements receptacles in the basement should be gfci protected due to concrete exposed floors. Throughout the basement there are various loose wires and missing plates. Also in the basement there is a junction box tucked in the ceiling that has wires exposed outside the junction box. In the utility room there is a plug going into a junction box to provide power to plugs(this is not allowed by Nec). Numerous boxes throughout the basement have no cover plates. Right outside the utility room there is a cut and exposed wire in the ceiling.

While on site customer also stated their sons computer screen was shutting off randomly or what seemed to be when the powder room exhaust fan was on.
