We recently completed a repair for a client that had a problem with their tennis court lights. The circuit breaker had shut off and would not reset. The electrician had determined an issue with the wire buried underground and could not locate the problem. We evaluated the situation and our experienced crew tracked and located the high voltage wire and located the bad splice. All tennis court lights are now working. Our customer is very satisfied and happy because we saved them thousands of dollars in replacing this 200′ heavy duty direct burial wire.
