A & L Electric - Benson's Emergency Electrical Services

Arc fault breakers are sensitive safety devices designed to prevent electrical fires. In Benson's summers, high demand from air conditioning and other appliances can cause wiring to heat up, potentially creating minor arcs or overloads that trigger the breaker. A & L Electric can perform a thorough inspection to pinpoint the cause—whether it's overloaded circuits, outdated wiring, or a faulty appliance—and provide a safe, lasting repair to restore your power and peace of mind.

Absolutely. We recommend a proactive electrical inspection before the heat sets in. Our certified electricians will check your panel's capacity, examine wiring for wear, test your AFCIs, and ensure your system can handle the increased load from cooling units and fans. This preventative service can identify potential hazards, recommend upgrades if needed, and help you avoid inconvenient breakdowns during the hottest days.

While occasional flickering can be normal with large motor startups, consistent flickering often signals an underlying issue common in older Benson homes, like an overloaded circuit or loose wiring connections. This not only affects your lighting but can strain your entire electrical system. A & L Electric can diagnose the root cause, which may involve circuit repair, panel service, or even a dedicated circuit installation for your AC, ensuring safe and stable operation all summer long.
