The reason for today’s visit with customer was a scheduled appointment to quote adding a receptacle to his garage for an EV charger port.

After going over the details we then were taken to the panel which was located in the back bedroom on the second floor. The panel was a 2011 Siemens 150 amp panel with dual function breakers and one mix-matched Eaton BR breaker.

Reason for today’s visit was to assess power loss to the primary bedroom as well as the garage lights. Customer stated the breaker had tripped a few times, and now would not reset. I checked the main panel and found that the breaker controlling the affected circuit was dead shorting immediately when trying to be reset. First thing I did was open up the panel and found that most of the circus have been transferred down to a sub panel below the main which had a hook up for a back up portable generator. The main panel was a 200 amp Square D panel that was original to the home. There was another 200 amp Square D panel next to this panel that had been replaced. For whatever reason the left panel was never replaced. The right panel appears to have been replaced but without a permit. There was never surge protection installed or emergency disconnects. And then began troubleshooting the circuit at the garage, because customer stated he had previous issues with the garage switch. When I opened
