Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my Panama home, and how can an inspection help?
Arc fault breakers in older Panama homes can trip due to aging wiring, damaged insulation, or even appliances like vacuum cleaners. A professional electrical inspection from B & M Electric pinpoints the exact cause—whether it's a faulty circuit, a wiring issue, or a normal appliance—so we can fix the problem correctly and prevent repeated, frustrating trips.
My generator transfer switch isn't working. What should I check before calling an electrician?
First, ensure your generator has fuel and is running properly. Check that the transfer switch is firmly in the "Generator" position and that all related circuit breakers are on. If everything seems correct but power isn't transferring, the issue is likely internal. Don't risk safety—our electrical inspection will safely diagnose switch failures, wiring faults, or control issues to get your backup power running reliably.
How does a general electrical inspection address both breaker trips and generator issues?
A comprehensive inspection examines your entire electrical system's health. For breaker trips, we test circuits and wiring for faults. For generators, we verify the transfer switch installation, connections, and its integration with your home's panel. This single service gives us a complete picture, allowing us to solve your immediate problem and identify any other potential safety or reliability concerns in your Panama home.
