Product Description
When your home is struck with an electrical circuit problem, you will no longer search in vain for help in those home improvement electrical books. Circuit Down attacks your short circuits, loose connections, and ground-fault (GFCI) troubles with detailed expert advice and illustrations.

Written for homeowners, the book will help novices as well as those with do-it-yourself experience (and even electricians).
*It is thorough but not overly technical.
*More than thirty graphics and charts will help you understand your wiring system, how it works, and what can happen to it.
*Many electrical problems will become easy to fix with confidence.

The author has used his extensive troubleshooting experience to provide a careful strategy to go after any problem.
*He helps the reader identify the cause and its location, using the symptoms you observe.
*His Diagnostic Tree chapter even lets you solve your particular problem without having to understand how everything works.
*Special testers are almost discouraged, in favor of patient common sense.

This is home electrical troubleshooting at its best. When your are faced with an electrical problem in the outlets, switches, or circuit breakers of your house, condominium, or mobile home, you will be glad you already made Circuit Down part of your household emergency kit.

About the Author

There he is known as The Circuit Detective, striking terror into the household electrical villains responsible for dead outlets, tripping breakers, and other mysteries. His extensive troubleshooting experience led him to develop this guide for overcoming these electrical surprises around the home.
