Peel Electrical Contractors Inc.

We had strange electrical problems occurring. Lights dimming, appliances dropping in power. Then our internet and cable tv started acting up. Called Rogers. Tech repaired melted cable at street box, then tested ground and found electrical current running through water pipes and cable coax cables. Said we needed an electrician to look into it.

Called Peel Electrical based on positive reviews. Jafar came the next day and based on what was happening he seemed to know immediately what the problem was. Inspected the main electrical panel and found the main 100A breaker had a hot spot. He called the electrical utility to turn off the power to house so he could replace the breaker. He waited until they came, they turned off the power and he replaced the breaker. The utility found they had an open neutral in our line from the street. They put a temporary box in place to provide the neutral path and will come next week to locate the problem area and repair it.
After his service call we found that our a/c was not working and it turned out the lack of a neutral path had damaged the transformer in the hvac system. Another costly repair (lesson learned: pay attention promptly to dimming lights, especially if it occurs in multiple circuits of the house).

All in all, Jafar was prompt and knew his stuff. Could have been a much more dangerous situation if not remedied quickly. Really appreciated his help with this!
