Q&A

How can an electrical inspection from Childs Electric help with improper grounding in my Lansdowne home?

Our detailed electrical inspection includes a thorough evaluation of your home's grounding system. We check the main service panel grounding, outlet grounding, and the connection to your home's grounding rod. Improper grounding is a common issue here, and we'll identify any deficiencies that could lead to electrical shock hazards or damage to your appliances. We then provide a clear plan to bring your system up to current safety codes, protecting your home and family.

What should I do if my Lansdowne home loses power after a storm, even after the main grid is restored?

This often indicates an issue within your home's electrical system, such as a tripped main breaker, a damaged service line, or a problem with your grounding. Before calling us, check your main breaker panel. If it's tripped and won't reset, or if your neighbors have power but you don't, it's time for a professional inspection. Childs Electric can safely diagnose the cause—whether it's storm-related damage or a pre-existing grounding fault—and get your Lansdowne home safely back online.

Why is an electrical inspection recommended for older homes in the Lansdowne area before storm season?

Older homes in our community may have outdated electrical systems that weren't designed for today's power demands or modern safety standards like proper grounding. An inspection by Childs Electric before storm season proactively identifies weak points, such as faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, or insufficient grounding, that are vulnerable to storm surges and outages. This allows you to address potential problems beforehand, reducing the risk of emergency failures and ensuring your system is as resilient as possible.
