Questions about GFCI outlets and tripping

What should I do before you arrive to check an outlet?

Clear access to the outlet and tell us what happened before it tripped.

Keep the affected outlet out of use.
Note any devices that were plugged.
Make the area around the outlet accessible.

Don't remove the outlet cover or handle exposed wiring. We can discuss the symptoms and access when you request service.

Which outlet conditions change the price of the job?

The outlet's wiring condition and the work needed to correct a fault can change the price.

Access to the outlet and any separate circuit repair also matter. We'll discuss the job and provide a quote based on the work involved, so you can decide how to proceed.

When should I stop resetting a GFCI outlet?

Repeated trips are a reason to stop resetting the outlet and request a check.

A trip signals that the device has interrupted power, but it doesn't identify the source of the problem. Keep the outlet out of use and tell us what you noticed. We'll assess the outlet and its circuit.

How can I tell you about an outlet problem?

Your description of the outlet and its symptoms helps us understand your request.

Tell us where the outlet is, whether it stays reset, and what was connected when it tripped. If other outlets lost power too, mention that. We can use those details to discuss an assessment and the work you need.
