How to Diagnose Common Residential Electrical Issues

When it comes to diagnosing common electrical issues in  residential applications 

Understanding what Line, Load, Switch Leg, Neutral, Ground and all related wiring, circuit breakers, devices, contactors, appliances and more are necessary to properly diagnose any known fault issue.

Grid tied electrical energy 120 240 volts as used in most homes in the US is very dangerous and can kill if improperly handled because it is always going to take the least resistance to ground.

The best advice is to turn off voltage at MAIN BREAKER before attempting any diagnose or repair and if you are unsure on how to tackle the issue at hand call in a professional who has the skills to perform the task for you.

With the advancement in today's off the shelf technologies and internet control of grid electrical power or off grid electrical power can be easily matched to any wattage load using just wind & solar with battery banking storage, this technology is referred to as aka mini microgrid.  

By producing more primary KV voltage than the secondary KW voltage and wattage requirements ensures a reliable source of electrical power for remote locations or grid tied switching locations. 

 Power companies and others in the US are already using these new technologies by charging lithium ion battery banking during off peak hours and bringing back online during peak hours.

Mini Microgrid Electrical Energy

Distribution-Automation-System

By daisy chaining various products on today's market free electrical power is an investment that can pay for itself and offer clean reliable pure sine wave grid quality electrical power that can be either grid or off grid tied. Single & 3 Phase secondary KW voltage options. With KV voltage options for KW load balancing and onsite transmission options along with Net Metering options.

 Either way each system can be designed to meet the demand for each customer's electrical energy required wattage usage that is island style connected as utilities, industrial and business have done for years with PLC SCADA control. 

DC lithium ion battery storage for solar and wind can provide unlimited amounts of clean pure sine wave AC electrical power. As utilities and others are currently using by charging during off peak hours and bringing online during peak demand. 

Newer PV systems on today's market that need no battery storage but hook directly into existing electrical panels with dedicated circuit breakers can also be daisy chained into this type of PLC SCADA Mini Microgrid island style connection.

The future is here today to harness many different forms of green electrical power into an investment that pays for itself with proven technologies.

Older Manufacture Housing Roadway Security Pole Lighting

The mission grid tied 31 down 19 operating 50 total!

What really makes older communities a nightmare to retrofit with new grid tied light fixtures is if new trenching needs completed than the existing underground utilities are within a 3' either side of Miss Dig flagging for each utility. Meaning a lot of careful labor intensive hand digging to bury new PVC or Rigid conduits as most of these older communities are direct burial UF cables 120 volt.

With the advancement in LED and solar it is cheaper in man hours alone to consider using free solar power to light up these areas using the existing metal poles in place.

30 Watt Solar Night Hawk Street Light With Remote and Timer Functions

The new 30 watt Night Hawk is the brightest solar street light ever made!

This fully commercial grade light features an adjustable solar panel so you can get the best angle for your panel while mounting the light where you want it.

This light has 60 super bright LED bulbs that put out a combined 3,000 Lumen!

We recommend using an iron or steel pole that is 15' to 25' with an external diameter of 3" or smaller at the top. Aluminum poles that are 12 gauge or lower are also adequate.

Other options available are wireless or hardwired pole mount security camera systems LAN (local area network) with PLC (programmable logic controller) alerts, data storage, theft fixture protection,

Other Vendors on today's market have similar products available
