House fires caused by DIY electrical work are a significant, often preventable, cause of residential damage, injuries, and fatalities. Electrical malfunctions—frequently stemming from improper installations by homeowners—are a leading cause of residential building fires. In the United States, an estimated 51,000 residential electrical fires occur each year, resulting in nearly 500 deaths, over 1,400 injuries, and $1.3 billion in property damage.
