Causes

Shorts can stem from a variety of problems. Here’s a look at the most common short-circuit culprits in your home:

Faulty Insulation: Old or damaged insulation allows neutral and live wires to touch, which can cause a short circuit. Nail and screw punctures as well as age can cause wire casings or insulation to deteriorate and allow short circuits.

Loose Connections: Attachments can loosen, sometimes allowing neutral and live wires to touch. Fixing faulty wire connections is difficult and sometimes requires working with live wires.

Household pests: Animals like mice, rats and squirrels sometime chew on wires. This can cause neutral and live wires to cross and result in a short.

Appliances: Old or broken appliances can develop shorts over time. Short circuits in appliances can occur in the plugs, in the power cords or inside the device. It’s best to have a technician look at shorts in larger appliances like ovens and dishwashers.
