Why Temporary Electric?

The following is information regarding why temporary electric is needed for temporary equipment used to mitigate fire and water damage.

It is important that everyone understands risks and liability of not following electrical codes and osha standards. All electrical codes prohibit knowingly overloading electrical circuits and require gfi  protection for temporary equipment.  Osha requires gfi protection for all temporary 125 volt equipment. General wiring circuits in houses, offices, and commercial spaces are not installed with the intention of “continuous load” which is three hours or more.  General wiring circuits are not capable of loads exceeding 80% of the rated ampacity of the circuit at any time.  Defective splices and connections can burn under a heavy load, even when the ampacity is not high enough to trip a circuit breaker or blow a fuse.  Overloading a circuit can cause a fire if the circuit breaker fails.

Circuit breakers subjected to water, moisture, improper installation, or use in a panel without a UL listing verifying compatability, can fail especially under “continuous load” exceeding its rated ampacity. When you call All Ways Electric corp for the emergency service we will always provide priority service and do what is needed to ensure electrical safety.
