PROJECT DESCRIPTION: DOCK WIRING REPAIR – CAPE CORAL, FL

We recently completed an electrical repair project for a set of four connected docks on a single circuit in Cape Coral, FL. Two docks were out of service due to a wiring fault, and the shared circuit was tripping, preventing safe operation.

WHAT WE DID:

  • Investigated the fault and traced the issue to a damaged wire between the first gem box and the next in-line box.
  • Verified the wiring path through the one-gang PVC box leading to the final gem box on the dock.
  • Removed and replaced the faulty wiring between the first gem box and the next connection point.
  • Ensured all affected wiring along the circuit up to the last gem box was replaced and properly secured.
  • Tested and confirmed safe, reliable power to all four docks.

THE RESULT:
The dock electrical system is now fully operational, with power restored to the previously disconnected docks. The circuit no longer trips, ensuring safe use of all dock outlets and lighting.
