Annual Electrical Home Safety Inspection
Our licensed electrician will inspect your home’s entire electrical system looking for any safety hazards and potential energy saving recommendations, including, but not limited to:
- Main panel boards: We inspect the main electrical panel/load center to ensure the wire connections on the breaker are properly torqued (tightened) and the breakers are properly connected to the buss bars. The screws connecting the wire to the breakers can become loose over time.
- Arc fault breakers: We inspect the arc fault breaker for proper function and safety.
- GFCI protection (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter): We make sure all receptacles that need GFCI protection are protected.
- Smoke detectors: We inspect all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors for proper interconnect operation. (Smoke detectors expire after 10 years.)
- Lighting: We inspect all lighting fixtures (visual inspection).
- Security lighting: We inspect any security lighting you may have.
- Timers: If you have an electrical unit on a timer, we will adjust for daylight savings time.
- Surge protection: We inspect your home for proper surge protection and/or recommendations.
- Back-stabbed connections: We inspect back stabbed connections, which can be a serious fire hazard.
- Change out Smoke Detector Batteries: On all smoke detectors less than 10 years old.
