American Power Electric - Goodyear's Trusted Electrical Repair

Our electrical inspection specifically checks for signs of stress on your wiring caused by sustained high temperatures. We look for degraded insulation, loose connections at outlets and breakers, and assess if your current wiring gauge is adequate for the load. Identifying these issues early allows us to make repairs or upgrades before the heat causes a failure or creates a fire hazard in your home.

Electrical meters can overheat due to loose meter base connections, corrosion, or simply being overburdened by a home's increased AC usage during our hottest months. Yes, our inspection includes a thermal scan of the meter and its connections to detect abnormal heat buildup that isn't visible to the naked eye. We can then recommend solutions, like having the utility tighten connections or upgrading the meter base, to prevent a dangerous failure.

We focus on components most vulnerable to heat: the main service panel for hot breakers, all wiring connections for tightness, the condition of insulation in attics (where temperatures soar), outdoor condenser units for proper electrical supply, and the meter base. Our goal is to ensure your entire system is not just functioning, but is resilient enough to handle our extreme summer conditions safely.
