FAQs

Why is my circuit breaker constantly tripping in my Silver City home?

Frequent tripping is a common sign of an overloaded circuit, a short, or a ground fault. In our area, this can often be traced back to older DIY wiring that doesn't meet current codes or, very commonly, damage from rodents chewing on wires in your attic or walls. Aarmco Electric can perform a detailed inspection to locate the exact cause, safely repair any damaged wire, and upgrade your panel or circuits if needed to ensure your home's safety.

What should I do if I suspect rodents have chewed my electrical wires?

If you hear scratching in walls, notice a burning smell, or have unexplained power outages in specific areas, rodent damage is a likely cause. This is a serious fire and shock hazard. Do not attempt to handle damaged wires yourself. Contact Aarmco Electric immediately. Our electricians will safely inspect the affected areas, repair or replace all compromised wiring, and can discuss options like installing rodent-deterrent conduit to help prevent future problems in your Silver City home.

Can you upgrade my electrical panel to handle a new generator installation?

Absolutely. Many Silver City homeowners install generators for backup power, especially given our remote location. A proper installation requires a transfer switch connected to your main electrical panel to safely isolate your home from the utility grid. Our team at Aarmco Electric is certified in generator installation. We will assess your current panel's capacity, perform any necessary upgrades or repairs, and ensure your new generator system is installed to code, providing safe and reliable backup power when you need it most.
