Questions and Answers

Why does my arc fault breaker in Rice Lake keep tripping, and how can Design Electric fix it?

Persistent AFCI trips are a common issue in our area, often caused by aged wiring, moisture in outlets, or appliances with older motors. Our electricians perform a thorough diagnostic inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a specific circuit, appliance, or wiring fault. We then provide a reliable repair or replacement, ensuring your system is safe and up to current electrical codes, which helps prevent those frustrating and potentially hazardous nuisance trips.

Can you repair wiring damaged by frozen conduit, and how do you prevent it from happening again?

Yes, we frequently repair wiring compromised by the freeze-thaw cycles that can crack conduit and allow moisture in, a known issue in the Rice Lake climate. Our repair process involves assessing the full extent of the damage, replacing the affected wiring, and using conduit and sealing methods rated for our local conditions. To prevent recurrence, we can recommend and install more durable, weather-resistant materials and proper installation techniques that protect your electrical system long-term.

If I'm adding solar panels, will my home's electrical system and breakers need an upgrade?

Often, yes. A solar installation adds a new electrical source to your home. Our process includes a comprehensive electrical inspection to evaluate your current panel's capacity, the condition of your wiring, and the performance of existing breakers (including AFCIs). We ensure your system can safely handle the solar integration, performing any necessary upgrades or repairs—like stabilizing troublesome circuits—so your new solar system works efficiently without disrupting your home's existing power.
