Q&A
What does a lightning protection system inspection involve?
Our electric inspection for lightning protection systems is thorough. We check all components—including rods, conductors, and grounds—for proper installation, corrosion, and damage to ensure the system meets UL standards. We also evaluate surge suppressors protecting your electronics. This inspection gives you peace of mind that your property is shielded from lightning strikes and related power surges.
Can you help with breaker panels that keep tripping from my AC unit?
Absolutely. Breaker panel overloads from air conditioners are a common issue in New Braunfels, especially during our hot summers. We can assess your panel's capacity and load distribution. Solutions may include upgrading the panel, installing a dedicated circuit for your AC, or optimizing your home's electrical layout to handle the demand safely and prevent future trips.
Why is proper grounding so important for a lightning rod system?
Grounding is the most critical part of the system. It safely channels the massive electrical energy from a lightning strike deep into the earth, away from your structure and wiring. We install robust, code-compliant grounding rods using materials like copper to ensure low resistance. Proper grounding prevents side flashes, fires, and protects both the building and sensitive electronics inside.
