The figure covers the visit, the testing that pinpoints the cause and leaving the installation safe. Parts and larger repairs are set out in a written quote before that work goes ahead. - Electrical fault finding: Price on request - Checking the consumer unit and meter testing the affected circuit until the cause is found are covered. - Isolating an unsafe stretch of wiring so the sound circuits keep working is included in the visit. - New cable, replacement accessories and work on other circuits are priced in writing before they begin. - Plaster repair or redecorating after a wall or floor is opened to reach a cable is not included. ## Electrical fault finding across Wolverhampton We serve Wolverhampton from our base in Swadlincote. - Tettenhall - Tettenhall Wood - Penn - Penn Fields - Wednesfield - Finchfield - Compton - Castlecroft - WV1 - WV3 - WV4 - WV6 - WV11 ## What happens on the day Fault finding at a Wolverhampton property starts with the symptom you have noticed, then works through the consumer unit, meter tests on the suspect circuit and the repair in that order. The rest of the property keeps power while testing runs. ### The symptom comes first The visit opens with your account of the fault: when the breaker first dropped, which lights or sockets went dead, and any smell of burning or scorch marks on a faceplate. Room to work around the consumer unit, the box holding the breakers and safety switches, means testing can begin straight away. ### Meter testing on the suspect circuit With the affected circuit switched off, the test meter reads continuity, insulation resistance and polarity along its run. Figures like these reveal a broken conductor or worn insulation inside cable that cannot be seen, without a wall being opened. Earth fault loop readings once power returns confirm the breaker would clear a fault in time. ### Closing in on the cause Each figure narrows the problem to a fitting, a joint or a stretch of cable. Sockets, switches and junction boxes on that run are then opened and checked for loose terminals, heat damage and moisture until the cause shows itself. ### Put right or left safely isolated A failed accessory or a loose terminal is repaired during the visit where the part is carried on the van. Where the answer needs new cable or more labour, that stretch of wiring stays switched off so the rest of the property keeps power, and the repair is set out in a written quote first. ## Fault finding and repair questions in Wolverhampton ### Do you carry out electrical fault finding in Wolverhampton?
