Electrical Services Panama City FL | Call B & S Electric Service

A professional electrical inspection by B & S Electric Service thoroughly evaluates your home's entire electrical system, including the breaker panel's capacity and wiring condition. We identify if your current panel is outdated or overloaded by modern appliances and electronics—a common issue in older Panama City homes. The inspection reveals potential fire hazards and provides a clear plan for any necessary upgrades, ensuring your system can handle local power demands safely.

Proper generator use is critical during hurricane season. A transfer switch safely connects a portable generator to your home's wiring, preventing dangerous backfeed to utility lines. Our inspection ensures your existing transfer switch is correctly installed, properly rated, and functioning. We check for wear, corrosion from our salty coastal air, and compliance with local codes, giving you peace of mind that your backup power will work safely and reliably when you need it most.

Common local signs include frequent breaker trips (indicating overload), flickering lights when using appliances, a buzzing sound from the panel, or reliance on extension cords due to insufficient outlets. Homes over 20-30 years old often have panels not designed for today's power needs. If you're adding a generator or major appliance, an inspection is a proactive step. Our assessment identifies these risks specific to our climate and older housing stock, preventing emergencies.
