    Power Cuts Only at Night in New Cairo?

    Nighttime cuts usually relate to higher nighttime loads (AC, heater) or a connection that expands with heat. We diagnose with instruments and fix permanently.

    What's the Real Cause?

    Thermal expansion at a loose panel connection — resistance rises under heavy nighttime load, causing a thermal trip
    A thermal-magnetic breaker nearing end-of-life becomes oversensitive to small current increases
    AC and water heater sharing one circuit, pushing real load past the original wire design
    Unbalanced load distribution across the sub-breakers inside the panel

    When Do You Need Immediate Action?

    Power cuts after midnight or when AC and heater run together
    Main breaker or AC breaker trips repeatedly at night
    Problem disappears in the morning and returns at the same time each night

    Our Fix Process

    1Measure real current with a clamp meter during peak nighttime load to identify the actual load per circuit
    2Thermal-camera inspection of every panel connection to spot looseness or abnormal heat
    3Rebalance loads across breakers, or replace a worn breaker with a matching-rated unit
    4Run a full-load operating test for at least an hour to confirm the fix holds before we leave

    FAQ

    Why does power cut only at night?

    Nighttime loads are higher (AC, heater, screens). Accumulated heat in weak connections causes thermal tripping even at normal current.

    What is thermal tripping in a breaker?

    Breakers have thermal protection that operates by expansion. A warm breaker from excess current or a weak connection will trip even if current is normal.

    Will upgrading wire size solve the nighttime cut?

    Sometimes yes if the wire is undersized. But diagnosis is needed first — the cause could be the breaker or a loose connection.

    What is the fastest way to diagnose nighttime cuts?

    We monitor the panel with a clamp meter during the fault hours to identify which circuit is responsible.

    Do you cover New Cairo and 5th Settlement?

    Yes — New Cairo and 5th Settlement are among the areas we serve most frequently.

    How much does diagnosis and repair cost?

    Tightening a loose connection costs far less than replacing a breaker or rewiring. We confirm the price after on-site inspection, before any work starts.

    How long does the repair take?

    Diagnosis is usually done in the same visit. The repair itself takes 1-2 hours if it's a connection tightening or single breaker swap.
