Circuit Fault Isolation Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

An intermittent fault can take three visits to find. This agent works through the diagnosis with you. From your description and first readings, it proposes the next test with the expected result for each possible cause. You perform the test and enter the result. It updates the list of likely causes, rules some out, and proposes the next test, repeating until the fault is isolated. It records the path taken and warns you about unsafe steps, such as testing a live circuit without lockout. It never acts on the circuit itself. You approve each test and any repair plan. Edge case: a breaker trips only when the dishwasher and microwave run, and the agent suggests a load test.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It ranks the likely causes by the evidence so far and picks the test that separates the most likely ones with the lowest risk.

  • Safety steps (lockout, tagout) always come first
  • Prefer non-invasive tests before opening panels
  • Rank causes by evidence, not by cost
  • Stop after 8 tests and review with the electrician

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Max tests before review (default 8)
  • Test equipment available
  • Circuit types
  • Safety notes included
  • Report format

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Each test
  • The repair plan

Hard limits

  • Never says a live test is safe
  • Never directs work on live equipment without lockout
  • Defers to the electrician

It stops when

  • Done: fault isolated and repair plan approved
  • Stop: 8 tests without isolation; electrician takes over

An example run

What happensA kitchen breaker tripped at random. The agent ranked a shared neutral, an overloaded circuit and a failing breaker. The first load test showed 17 A with all appliances on, so the 20 A circuit was not overloaded and the check for isolation failed. Next test: a megger on the neutral showed a low reading at the junction box. The electrician approved a repair of that connection.
