Electrical Faults in your Home

Electrical faults can go unnoticed in your home for a long time – especially if your home does not have circuit breakers and safety switches installed on your switchboard. Overtime these electrical faults can become a hazard to your family and home risking electrical shocks and/or an electrical fire.

Circuit breakers and safety switches are put in place to protect your family and home against these risks:

• The circuit breaker will protect your circuits from excessive currents coming in and/or short circuit issues.
• Safety switches are put in place to protect people from any electrical accidents as they instantly disconnect the power supply when any irregularity is detected.

What can cause electrical faults?

When it comes it comes to electrical faults the most common reasons are:

• Any loose connections found in the main switchboard.
• An electrical circuit can become overloaded when there are too many appliances or electrical equipment connected and running at the same time which causes the maximum demand to exceed the supply available.
•  Faulty appliances can also cause safety switches to turn off.
• Short circuiting can also be happening if any of the wiring/circuit is damaged, old or has loose connections.
