Questions and Answers

How can an electrical inspection from First Choice Electric help prepare my Columbus home for storm season?

Our comprehensive electrical inspection identifies weaknesses in your system that could fail during severe weather, such as old wiring, loose connections, or an inadequate grounding rod. By proactively addressing these issues, we can fortify your electrical panel and wiring to better withstand power surges and outages common in Central Ohio storms, helping to prevent damage and costly emergency repairs.

My power frequently flickers during storms. Could this be a grounding issue, and can you fix it?

Yes, frequent flickering or outages during storms often point to an improper or outdated grounding system. A properly grounded system safely directs lightning strikes and power surges into the earth, protecting your home's circuitry. First Choice Electric can test your current grounding, and if needed, install or upgrade your grounding rods and wiring to meet code and provide reliable protection for your Columbus home.

After a storm caused an outage, my power is back on but some outlets aren't working. What should I do?

This is a common sign of storm-related damage, such as a tripped GFCI outlet, a faulty circuit breaker, or compromised wiring. For your safety, avoid using the non-functioning outlets. Contact First Choice Electric for a prompt inspection. Our electricians will safely diagnose the issue, which is often localized to a specific circuit or grounding fault, and make the necessary repairs to restore full, safe functionality to your home.
