Frequently Asked Questions
How can an electrical inspection from Decoster Electric identify problems with my old home's wiring in Brooklyn?
Our comprehensive electrical inspection is specifically designed to spot the common issues we see in Brooklyn-area homes, like aging panels and faulty grounding. We'll test your system's capacity, check for safe connections at the panel, and verify that all circuits are properly grounded to protect against shocks and surges. This gives you a clear, expert assessment of any safety risks.
My house in Brooklyn has an old fuse box. What are the signs it needs to be replaced after an inspection?
After our inspection, we'll advise a panel upgrade if we find signs like frequent blown fuses, a lack of capacity for modern appliances, rust or corrosion, or if the system lacks AFCI/GFCI protection required by current code. Upgrading to a modern circuit breaker panel enhances safety, prevents overloads, and provides the reliable power your home needs.
Why is proper grounding so important for homes in our area, and how does your inspection check for it?
Proper grounding is a critical safety feature that directs stray electrical current safely into the earth, preventing shocks and protecting electronics. In older Brooklyn homes, grounding systems can be missing or deteriorated. Our inspection includes testing outlets and the main electrical panel to ensure your grounding system is intact and fully functional, safeguarding your family and your investments.
