BlueArc Electrical Services: Professional Electrical Services Serving Newport News, VA 23602

Absolutely. A key part of our comprehensive electrical inspection is verifying the safety and functionality of your generator's automatic transfer switch (ATS). We test the switch's operation, check all connections for corrosion—common in our coastal climate—and ensure it will reliably disconnect from the grid and activate your generator during a power outage, a critical need for many Hampton Roads homes.

GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas are designed to trip when they detect a ground fault, protecting you from shock. In Newport News, humidity and salty air can accelerate wear and cause moisture to seep into outlets, leading to nuisance tripping or failure. Our inspection can identify if the issue is with the specific outlet, the wiring behind it, or if a circuit is overloaded, and we provide a lasting repair to restore safety and function.

A proactive electrical inspection by BlueArc allows us to identify potential issues before they cause a failure. We can spot early signs of corrosion on transfer switch components, test GFCI outlets for proper response time, and check for any wiring degradation. This preventative approach is especially valuable in our area, helping Newport News homeowners avoid inconvenient and potentially dangerous electrical issues during storm season or everyday use.
