Hi;
I have a short circuit in part of my house - the breaker immediately trips when I try to reset it and it's not the breaker because I tried switching the wires with another good breaker and it makes it trip as well.
I checked all the outlets and light switches in the two affected rooms, everything looked ok, unplugged one at a time and tested the breaker, no go.
I think I know what the problem is though, I put in two nails into the wall to hang up some pictures recently... I'm going to call an electrician, but wanted some insights as to what he can do to fix the problem and how big a job will it be? Does he have to tear down all the drywall, etc?? What would be a reasonable quote?
Any input appreciated.
