Electrical Question from Jim about Light Switch Wiring
[ad#block]Question: I have a property light mounted over my garage door. I was hosing off the garage and sprayed the light and heard a pop sound. I checked the breakers and also replaced the bulb. The light no longer comes on at dusk??
Dave’s Reply:
Thanks for your electrical question.
