Question Answers
My outlets are warm to the touch. Is this a serious issue in my Athens home, and what should I do?
Yes, overheated outlets are a serious safety concern and a common issue we see locally. This often indicates overloaded circuits, loose wiring, or a failing outlet itself, all of which can pose a fire risk. You should stop using that outlet immediately and call a professional. At Current Solutions Contracting, we can diagnose the root cause—whether it's a simple outlet repair or a more complex circuit breaker or panel issue—and perform the necessary repair to ensure your home is safe.
I'm concerned my older Athens home might have improper grounding. How can you check and fix this?
Improper grounding is a critical safety hazard, especially in older homes, as it prevents circuit breakers from tripping correctly during a fault. Our team can perform a thorough electrical inspection to assess your entire system's grounding. If issues are found, we provide solutions like upgrading your electric panel, installing proper grounding rods, and repairing or replacing outdated wiring and outlets. This brings your home up to current safety standards, protecting your family and electronics.
With frequent power outages in our area, what's the best generator solution for my home?
For reliable backup power in Athens, we recommend and professionally install permanent standby generators that automatically turn on during an outage. We'll assess your home's electrical load to size a unit correctly and handle the entire installation, including connecting it to your electric panel with a proper transfer switch. We also provide expert repair and maintenance services to ensure your generator is ready when you need it most, giving you peace of mind during Maine storms.
