Steps To Electrical Fault Finding


 Electrical troubleshooting can be very dangerous, stressful and time-consuming. If you have installed circuit breakers, these will trip as soon as an electrical fault occurs. Consequently, these circuit breakers can keep your electrical appliances safe and sound.

You only need to identify the cause of the fault to restore electricity throughout your home or office. 

Step 1 - Deactivate circuit breakers

Are you wondering what is causing the loss of electricity throughout the house? It is likely that the main circuit breaker has tripped. However, it is likely that the circuit breakers are still active. This is why it is necessary to turn off all circuit breakers for extra safety. You can turn off the circuit breakers without any problems.

Step 2 - Switch on the main switch

As discussed in the first step, the main safety switch may have tripped. Once all switches have been turned off, it is time to turn on the main switch. After doing this, the main switch has a power supply. However, the house or appliances will not work because the switches are still off.

Step 3 - Activate the circuit breakers (one by one)

Now it is necessary to turn on each circuit breaker. Above all, be sure to turn them on one by one. This will help you better diagnose the problem.

Step 4 - Identify the fault

You can identify the fault by turning on the circuit breakers one by one. For example, if you turn on the kitchen switch, and it stays on, there is no fault. If you turn on the yard switch, and it trips again, it means there is a fault to be diagnosed.

Step 5 - Switching off the circuit breakers

In step 4, the faulty circuit was identified by turning on the circuit breakers individually. In this step, all circuit breakers must be switched off again.

Step 6 - Restore all but the defective power supply

If you want to restore power to your home, you can turn on the main switch and circuit breakers again. However, do not turn on the faulty circuit breaker. In this way, you can restore power to the house except for the faulty circuit.

Step 7 - Call an experienced electrician

You need to repair the faulty circuit as soon as possible. A professional electrician can help you solve the problem once the fault has been identified. Do not turn on the faulty switch until the problem has been solved.

Troubleshooting water heater problems: Noisy pipes

When you start hearing noises in the water pipes, these can be caused by air or lack of air, obstructions and blockages in the water line. Here are some steps you can take to identify the problem. Water hammer Water hammer is a dull sound that results from the sudden pressurisation of the water line caused by the rapid closing of a tap or other water valve. The water rises rapidly, causing a loud hammering sound in the pipes. This damages the pipes over time. Water hammer only occurs when water is not flowing. You can rule out water hammer if you hear the noise while the water is flowing. Shut off the water supply to your house and drain the water from the pipes by opening a low tap, such as an outside tap or a tub.
