Electrical Risk: A
Leading Cause of
Residential
Fire Loss

Electrical issues are often hidden but can have serious safety and loss
implications when left unaddressed.

Overview
Why Electrical Risk Matters

Over time, electrical systems age, loads increase, and small changes can introduce risk.
Without early awareness, minor electrical issues can escalate into serious safety concerns
or costly damage.

CHRP helps bring early visibility to common electrical risks through a structured,
homeowner-friendly assessment experience.

Common Risks
Common Electrical Risks
Typical Electrical Issues Include:
Outdated or overloaded electrical panels
Electrical panel manufacturers known to cause fires
Improper wiring or exposed connections
Non-compliant modifications or additions

These conditions are often difficult to identify consistently without a structured assessment approach.

Risk Identification
Guided, Construction-Aware Assessment

CHRP uses a guided self-assessment process to surface visible electrical
conditions that may indicate increased risk. Homeowners complete the
process on their own time, without scheduling and without in-home visits.

This approach improves participation while supporting consistent risk review.
