Switches Inoperable - Most Common Home Inspection Issues Found

This video describes one of the most common home inspection defects that we find.
Some switches in the home appeared to be inoperable at the time of the inspection. These switches may connect to exterior lights which are controlled by photo sensors and so will operate only at night. Switches sometimes control only the upper or lower half of an outlet or a junction box for a ceiling fan that was not installed. Tracing the devices controlled by all switches exceeds the scope of the general home inspection. You should take action to confirm that these switches are safe, either by asking the seller or having them traced by a qualified electrician.
