Our comprehensive electrical inspection includes a detailed check of your generator's transfer switch. We test its operation, verify all connections are secure and corrosion-free, and ensure it's properly rated for your home's load. This proactive service identifies wear or installation issues common in our area before they cause a failure during a power outage, guaranteeing your backup power kicks in safely when you need it most.

Frequent tripping is a classic sign of an overloaded panel, a common issue we see in older Northport homes as families add more appliances and devices. Our electrical inspection measures the actual load on your circuits, assesses the capacity of your current panel, and identifies any unsafe wiring. We provide a clear report and expert recommendations—whether it's a simple circuit rearrangement or a panel upgrade—to restore safety and prevent nuisance trips.

Adding a generator or large appliance (like an EV charger or HVAC system) stresses your existing electrical system. Our inspection ensures your current panel and wiring can handle the added load safely. For generators, we verify the compatibility and installation point for the transfer switch. This crucial step prevents overloading, ensures compliance with local codes, and protects your investment by confirming everything will work reliably from the start.
