Electrical issues are a serious problem in many houses I inspect. Many homes have had updates or modifications performed by “Uncle Bob” or a “Friend” that knows something about electrical work. The problem is they know just enough to be dangerous! Electrical repairs and modifications should be performed by a qualified Licensed Electrical contractor and inspected if needed.

Here in this photo you see a violation in many regards of the service coming into the house. Improper connection to the structure and improper height of the drip loop or service lines.

Why take a chance with your life, family over a few dollars? Think before letting someone do this or worse to your house.
