Calhoun Electric Company - San Antonio's Experienced Electrical Company

During an inspection, our electricians thoroughly assess your home's electrical system, including wiring, grounding, and existing surge protection. We identify vulnerabilities that could leave your appliances exposed during the voltage spikes common in our area. Based on our findings, we can recommend and install dedicated whole-house surge protection devices, creating a critical defense line to absorb excess voltage before it reaches your valuable electronics and appliances.

Yes, an outlet that is warm or hot is a serious safety warning sign of an overheated connection, often due to loose wiring or an overloaded circuit—issues we frequently encounter in San Antonio homes. You should stop using that outlet immediately and call us. Our electricians will perform a detailed inspection of the outlet and circuit, safely diagnose the root cause (like faulty wiring or insufficient capacity), and make the necessary repairs or upgrades to eliminate the fire hazard and restore safe, reliable power.

Our comprehensive electrical inspection evaluates your entire system: service panel capacity, wiring integrity, grounding, and all outlets and switches. We specifically check for signs of overloaded circuits that lead to overheating and assess the existing level of surge protection. This local-focused inspection allows us to provide a clear report on your home's specific risks related to surges and overheating, offering tailored solutions like circuit upgrades, outlet replacements, or surge protector installation to directly address the safety concerns prevalent in our community.
