Rodent , & corrosion damage

Causes of Equipment Failures

Control boxes, timers, circuit breaker panels, knife switches, & wire are all susceptible to weather, mice, rats, & corrosion. Even crimped fittings fail due to corrosion. I have seen wire insulation heavily damaged by rodents. So, checking for this kind of damage ought to be top of the list. Also, pressure switches and timer switches usually need replacement after a few years.
