FAQs

What are the signs my Peoria home's aluminum wiring needs an inspection?

Common warning signs include flickering lights, warm or discolored outlets/switch plates, a burning plastic smell, or frequently tripped breakers. Aluminum wiring, common in many older Peoria homes, can loosen over time at connections, creating fire hazards. A professional electrical inspection from Cover Electric can assess the condition of your wiring and recommend necessary repairs or upgrades.

Why do my GFCI outlets keep tripping, and how can you help?

Frequent tripping in bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor areas often indicates a ground fault, a worn-out outlet, or moisture intrusion—common issues in our Illinois climate. While it's a safety feature, persistent tripping needs expert diagnosis. Our electricians will test the outlet and circuit to pinpoint the cause, whether it's a simple replacement, faulty appliance, or a deeper wiring issue, ensuring your home's protection against electrical shock.

What does a standard electrical inspection cover for a Peoria homeowner?

Our comprehensive inspection evaluates your home's entire electrical system. We check the service panel for proper capacity and safety, test all outlets (including GFCIs and AFCIs), inspect wiring for damage or improper installations like aluminum wiring, verify grounding, and assess lighting fixtures. The goal is to identify any code violations or potential hazards specific to Peoria-area homes, providing you with a clear report and recommendations for a safer, more reliable electrical system.
