How’s Your Electrical System Holding Up?

The average homeowner rarely thinks about the electrical system – that is, until it starts acting up. Responsible homeowners get ahead of the problem with preventative maintenance and routine inspections. It is advised that you have your electrical system inspected once a year or two to make sure everything is in line. During an electrical inspection, your electrician in Huntington Station will:

• Check the electrical panel to ensure it is the right size and is functioning correctly.
• Inspect the electrical wiring and connections for signs of fraying, damage, loose connections, and other issues.
• Make sure outlets are properly grounded and functioning properly.
• Confirm the electrical system is in compliance with local building codes and regulations.
• Check for safety hazards.
• Offer recommendations for necessary repairs and upgrades.
• Provide a report of the inspection.

Signs of Trouble

Routine inspections can help catch electrical issues early on and nip them in the bud, many times preventing unnecessary repairs. Still, issues can arise in between appointments. This is why responsible homeowners should stay vigilant and watch out for common signs of electrical issues:

• Outlets and switches that are hot to the touch.
• Burn marks on and burning smell from outlets, appliances, switches, and circuit breaker box.
• Lights flickering and/or circuit breakers frequently tripping.
• Buzzing or humming noises from outlets, circuit breaker, wiring, and walls.
• Excessive electricity bills.
• Electrical shock from appliances or outlets.

Call an electrician if you notice any of these issues so that we can get started on the electrical repair in Huntington Station before they spiral into big problems. Faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, and improperly grounded outlets can cause a world of hurt, potentially frying your appliances and electronics and even causing an electrical fire.
