Help Rafael with an electrician's skills: faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning
Looking for a licensed electrician in San Diego to donate time or work at cost.

In July an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $700 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed electrician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $95.
The job should take about six hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're an electrician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for reading my story.

you're not alone, Rafael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Rafael. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of San Diego.
shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
So sorry you're going through this. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Alcalá de Henares.
Hang in there, Rafael. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Rooting for you, Rafael. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
