Question Answers
What does a standard electrical inspection cover for a home in Modesto?
Our thorough electrical inspection in Modesto checks your entire system for safety and code compliance. We examine your main service panel for proper amperage and secure connections, test all outlets and GFCIs, inspect wiring for any signs of damage or deterioration, and verify that all lighting and switches are functioning correctly. This proactive check is especially important in our area to identify issues like outdated wiring or early signs of wear before they become a hazard.
We're having issues with our EV charger tripping the breaker. Can Blake Electric help?
Absolutely. This is a common issue in Modesto as homes add high-demand EV chargers to older electrical systems. The tripping breaker is a safety feature indicating an overloaded circuit. We can assess your home's current electrical capacity and install a dedicated, properly sized circuit for your EV charger. This ensures safe, reliable charging without disrupting power to the rest of your home and protects your electrical system from damage.
I suspect rodents have chewed my wiring. What should I do?
Rodent damage to wiring is a frequent and serious problem in the Modesto area. The first step is to turn off power to the affected area if it's safe to do so, then call us immediately. Our electricians are trained to safely locate and repair damaged wiring, which is a fire hazard. We can also recommend and install preventative measures, such as rodent-resistant conduit or sealing entry points in collaboration with pest control, to protect your home's electrical system going forward.
