Absolutely. Power surges are a common concern in our area and can stem from internal issues or external factors like utility switching. We can install whole-house surge protection devices at your main electrical panel. This provides a first line of defense, diverting excess voltage safely to the ground before it can reach and damage your sensitive electronics and major appliances. We can also recommend and install point-of-use protectors for added security on specific high-value items.

Signs of grounding issues can include frequent circuit breaker trips, tingling sensations from appliances, non-functional GFCI outlets, or lights that dim or flicker. Older Lima homes may have original two-prong outlets, which indicate a lack of proper grounding. Our electricians can perform a dedicated grounding system inspection. We'll test your grounding electrodes and connections to ensure they provide a safe path for electrical faults, which is crucial for preventing shock hazards and protecting your home's electrical infrastructure.
