We understand the importance of having peace of mind, especially when it comes to your electrical system. Our licensed professionals are trained to inspect and assess your electrical system and diagnose any issues that require attention. We will provide expert advice on what is in your best interest to keep your electrical system working safely and efficiently.
At Built Electric, our electrical troubleshooting and inspection service includes thoroughly assessing your electrical system to identify and resolve any issues efficiently. Here’s what is typically involved:
- Initial visual inspection: We will start by inspecting key components such as circuit breakers, outlets, switches, and visible wiring. This helps spot any obvious signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
- Electrical testing: Using specialized tools, we can test circuits for continuity, voltage, and load imbalances. We can also check for overloaded circuits or potential short circuits that could lead to hazards.
- Panel inspection: The electrical panel or breaker box is a common source of problems. We can examine it for loose connections, burnt marks, or tripped breakers and verify the integrity of the grounding and bonding.
- Wiring inspection: We can check both accessible wiring and connections, looking for issues like frayed insulation, improper installations, or any signs of overheating.
- Appliance and device testing: If you’ve reported issues with specific appliances or electrical devices, we can also test those to rule out internal malfunctions or wiring problems.
- GFCI and AFCI Testing: We can ensure that ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) and arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) are functioning correctly for safety, particularly in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas.
- Safety Code Compliance: We will ensure your system adheres to local electrical codes and safety regulations throughout the process. If we find any non-compliance, we will recommend necessary upgrades or corrections.
- Reporting and Recommendations: Once the inspection is complete, we will inform you of the issues found, their potential risks, and the recommended course of action to resolve them.
When to Consider an Electrical Inspection
Here are some situations when you should consider getting an electrical inspection:
- If you live in an older home
- After storm damage
- Before home upgrades or renovations
- If you moved into a new home
- If you have sudden or reoccurring electrical problems
Scheduling an appointment with a licensed electrician to troubleshoot and inspect your electrical system has numerous benefits. First and foremost, it helps ensure your safety. Electricity poses serious risks. A professional electrician is trained to identify potential hazards and prevent dangerous situations arising from neglected or improper electrical work.
A professional electrician can provide you with accurate diagnostics. Electrical systems are complex and require special tools and expertise. This eliminates guesswork and ensures problems are resolved efficiently.
Another important factor to consider is code compliance. Electrical work must adhere to strict local codes and regulations that ensure safety and functionality. Professional electricians are familiar with these standards and will ensure your system complies.
Another great benefit of hiring a professional electrician is preventative maintenance and cost savings. A professional doesn’t just focus on fixing the current problem; they also identify potential future issues, saving you money in the long run. A professional will quickly and correctly diagnose the issue, reducing the likelihood of repeated issues.
Nothing beats having peace of mind. When a licensed professional handles your electrical system, you can rest assured that the work is done safely and to the highest standards. This peace of mind is invaluable, especially when dealing with something as critical as your home or business’s electrical system.
