Questions and Answers

Why would my generator transfer switch fail, and how can an electrical inspection help?

In Wilmington, transfer switches often fail due to corrosion, loose connections from vibration, or age. Our electrical inspection tests the switch's operation, checks all wiring connections for security and corrosion, and verifies it's properly rated for your generator. This identifies the exact problem, whether it's a simple fix or a needed replacement, ensuring your backup power works reliably during an outage.

My GFCI outlets keep tripping or won't reset. What does an inspection from Clennon Electric look for?

Frequent GFCI trips in Wilmington homes can signal moisture intrusion, a faulty appliance, or wiring issues downstream. Our inspection isolates the problem by testing the outlet itself, checking for ground faults in the circuit it protects, and looking for signs of moisture in boxes. We find the source so we can fix it permanently, restoring safe, code-compliant protection to your kitchen, bathroom, or outdoor outlets.

What's included in a whole-home electrical inspection, and how does it prevent common local problems?

Our comprehensive inspection reviews your main panel, wiring, grounding, and all critical devices like GFCIs and smoke detectors. For Wilmington homeowners, this proactive check can uncover hidden issues that lead to transfer switch or GFCI failures, such as overloaded circuits, outdated wiring, or improper grounding. It gives you a complete safety picture and a prioritized plan to address vulnerabilities before they cause an outage or hazard.
