Theory: As electrical current flows through a conductor, heat is generated. Many electrical defects are accompanied by a rise in temperature for up to several weeks prior to failure. Some defects may be represented as cool components. Improperly Closed Air Switch Load Imbalance on Bus Duct Loose/Deteriorated Fuse Clips
