Lubbock Electrical Inspection & EV Charger Experts | A & P Electric

Absolutely. Many older Lubbock homes weren't built to handle the continuous high load of an EV charger, which can lead to tripped breakers or dangerous overheating. Our comprehensive electrical inspection includes a detailed assessment of your main service panel's capacity and the condition of your home's wiring. We'll identify if your current system can safely support a charger and, if needed, install a dedicated, properly sized circuit to ensure safe, reliable charging without overloading your home's electrical system.

Power surges are a common issue in our area and can instantly fry the electronics in modern appliances. A key part of our inspection is evaluating your home's existing surge protection. We check for proper grounding and bonding, which are your first line of defense. More importantly, we can identify if your system needs an upgrade, such as installing a whole-house surge protector at your main electrical panel. This provides the strongest protection for all your appliances against the spikes that can come from the grid or during our frequent West Texas storms.

Our inspection is a thorough, neighborly review of your home's electrical safety. We'll visually examine your main panel, circuit breakers, outlets, and visible wiring for signs of wear, improper installations, or code violations. We'll test GFCI and AFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and garages—areas crucial for safety. We'll also discuss your current and future electrical needs, like adding an EV charger or a home office, to ensure your system is not just safe today but prepared for tomorrow. You'll receive a clear report of our findings and any recommended repairs or upgrades.
