What this usually means

How Simon Electric approaches this

  • Intermittent electrical problems can be harder to catch because the circuit may work when someone first looks at it.
  • Repeated cycling, flickering, dimming, or partial power should be documented and tested.
  • Do not ignore a pattern that involves heat, smell, buzzing, or equipment shutting off.

What we check

Safety first
