  1. Capture the exact state

    Reversible

    Photograph the code and confirm whether the generator is supplying the home.

  2. Separate the likely fault domains

    Reversible

    After the complete official shutdown sequence, inspect whether the specified fuse is present, seated and visibly open.

  3. Correct only the proven, accessible condition
