Fitzpatrick Electric | Qualified Electrical Contractor in Lincoln, IL

Aluminum wiring, common in older Lincoln homes, can loosen at connections over time, creating a serious fire risk. Our detailed electrical inspection specifically checks for signs of overheating, improper connections, and outdated components related to aluminum wiring. We provide a clear assessment and expert recommendations, which may include repairs or the installation of special connectors (Al/Cu rated), to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and up to modern standards.

Absolutely. While inspecting your Lincoln home's electrical panel, we can evaluate your need for surge protection. Local grid fluctuations or lightning strikes can send damaging surges through your wiring. We can install a whole-house surge protector at your main service panel, which acts as a first line of defense to absorb large voltage spikes before they reach your refrigerator, HVAC system, computers, and other valuable appliances, significantly reducing the risk of damage.

Our inspection is a thorough, neighborly review of your home's electrical safety. We check your main service panel for overloaded circuits and proper labeling, test outlets for correct wiring and grounding, inspect visible wiring for damage, evaluate lighting fixtures, and assess the condition of switches. For Lincoln residents, we pay special attention to issues prevalent in our area, providing you with a straightforward report and prioritized solutions to keep your home safe and functional.
