A homeowner in New Orleans contacted MK Electric Man with an urgent issue: power was not working within their home, leaving lights and receptacles inoperative.

The lack of power affected essential electrical appliances, disrupting daily activities and causing frustration.

Initial observations pointed to an overloaded circuit, which had caused the circuit breaker to short out, cutting power to multiple areas of the home.

The client needed a reliable electrician in New Orleans, LA, to diagnose the problem and restore power to support their appliances and lighting needs.

Our team arrived promptly to assess the situation, recognizing that an overloaded circuit occurs when the demand for electricity exceeds the circuit’s capacity, often leading to breaker trips or shorts.

The challenge was to identify the extent of the issue, rewire the affected areas, and install a solution to handle the load safely.

Our goal was to restore power efficiently, ensuring the home’s electrical system was safe, reliable, and capable of supporting the client’s needs.

Our approach to this project involved a thorough assessment followed by expert wiring and installation to resolve the power outage.

We began by inspecting the circuit breaker panel to confirm the shorted breaker, which had failed due to the overloaded circuit, a common issue in homes with high electrical demand from appliances.

To address this, we planned to install a dedicated 20-amp circuit to alleviate the strain on the existing wiring and provide reliable power for the home’s appliances.

We started by installing new 12-2 Romex wiring, a durable and code-compliant option with a grounding conductor, to create the dedicated circuit.

This process involved carefully fishing the wiring inside the wall, a technique that allows us to route the new cable through existing structures without extensive damage.

We cut precise holes in the wall to accommodate the wiring path, ensuring a clean and professional installation.

Next, we installed a heavy-duty, commercial-grade 20-amp, 120-volt receptacle to connect to the new dedicated circuit, providing a robust solution capable of handling the electrical load of the home’s appliances.

The dedicated circuit ensured that high-demand appliances, such as refrigerators or air conditioners, would no longer overload the system, reducing the risk of future shorts or outages.

After completing the wiring and receptacle installation, we connected the new circuit to the breaker panel, ensuring secure and proper connections.

We tested the system by powering on the lights, receptacles, and appliances, confirming that everything inside the home was working properly.

The lights illuminated consistently, and the receptacles delivered steady power, resolving the outage completely.

A final inspection verified that all connections were secure, the installation met local electrical codes, and the system was safe for long-term use.

The homeowner was thrilled with the restored power and the reliability of the new setup.
