Electrical Supply & Storm Damage Help for Ashland, KY | Appalachian Electrical Supply

Storm surges can cause hidden water damage and corrosion within your home's wiring, which may not be immediately visible. A professional electrical inspection identifies compromised circuits, outlets, and panels to prevent potential fire hazards or system failures, ensuring your home is safe and up to code.

This is a common issue here. Moisture from storms can temporarily cause minor current leaks that trip sensitive AFCIs. First, have an electrician perform an inspection to rule out serious damage. Often, the breaker is doing its job, but the inspection can pinpoint if the cause is storm-related damage or a need for a breaker update.

Our recommended inspection focuses on storm-vulnerable areas: checking the main panel and sub-panels for water intrusion, testing GFCIs and AFCIs for proper function, examining outdoor fixtures and wiring for damage, and assessing the integrity of grounding systems to ensure your home's electrical protection is fully restored.
