Common, Dangerous Issues Our Wiring Repair Technicians Often See
Overlamping
One of the most common sources of electrically induced fires is undoubtedly overlamping. Essentially this wiring problem presents itself when a bulb is used with a wattage much higher than the fixutre supporting it, causing "overarching" to occur between wires where electricity jumps from one exposed wire to another.
Ungrounded Receptacles
In some older wiring schemes for Long Island homes, stray current was not properly accounted for, making outlets that use adapters for three prong connections potential fire or shock hazards. Though the risk is somewhat negligible for two prong connectors, it is all too easy to overlook the fact that this can take place and have horrible consequences for any device you are plugging in as well as your health.
Overwired Panels
In older homes especially, it is very common to see panels that contain more circuits than they are initially prepared to handle. Though the actual risk associated with such panel configurations is not substantial, the code violation associated with such a problem can cause your to fail inspection.
Receptacles with Loose Plugs
Have you ever had an outlet that your plugs generally fall from as if they are fitting too loosely? This can be a serious problem again producing "overarching," a serious safety hazard.
