Frequently Asked Questions

How can an electrical panel upgrade protect my Auburn home from power surges?

Many older homes in our area have outdated electrical panels that lack proper surge protection. Upgrading your panel allows us to install whole-house surge protection devices. This acts as a first line of defense, diverting dangerous voltage spikes from lightning or grid fluctuations away from your sensitive electronics and appliances, preventing costly damage.

My lights flicker when appliances turn on. Is this a sign of an improper grounding issue?

Yes, flickering lights can indicate a grounding problem, which is common in older Auburn homes. Improper grounding means electrical faults have nowhere safe to go, creating potential shock hazards and damaging equipment. Our electricians can perform a thorough inspection, test your grounding system, and make necessary repairs to your wiring or panel to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and stable.

Can B&B Electric install a generator to prepare for Bay County power outages?

Absolutely. We specialize in the safe installation and repair of backup generators for Auburn homes. A properly installed automatic standby generator will keep your essential systems running during an outage, protecting your home from damage caused by power loss (like sump pump failure) and preventing the damaging power surges that often occur when utility power is restored.
