Frequently Asked Questions

What is involved in your electrical inspection service for a home in Keaau?

Our electrical inspection is a thorough assessment of your home's wiring, panels, outlets, and safety systems. For Keaau residents, we pay special attention to common local issues like GFCI outlet performance in humid areas and the integrity of generator transfer switches, which are crucial during power interruptions. The inspection helps identify potential hazards, ensures your system is up to current code, and provides a clear report on any needed repairs or upgrades to keep your home safe and efficient.

How does your solar installation process work for a Big Island home?

As a licensed electrical contractor (#C-28739) with over 20 years of experience, our solar installation begins with a detailed consultation to assess your energy needs and roof suitability. Our team of eight electricians handles the entire process, from system design and permitting to the electrical integration and final inspection. We ensure your photovoltaic system is correctly connected to your home's electrical panel and complies with all Hawaii County and utility requirements, aiming to maximize your energy savings and system reliability.

My GFCI outlets keep tripping, and my generator won't switch on during an outage. Can you help?

Absolutely. These are frequent issues we address for homeowners in Keaau. Persistent GFCI trips often signal moisture intrusion or circuit faults common in our climate, which we can diagnose and repair. For generator transfer switch faults, our electricians troubleshoot the automatic or manual switchgear, the connection to your home's panel, and the safety interlocks to ensure reliable backup power when you need it most. Fixing these problems enhances both safety and convenience for your household.
