Five State Electric - Greenville's Top-Rated Electrical Company

Our comprehensive electrical inspection focuses on identifying weak points in your home's defense system. We check your main service panel, grounding, and whole-house surge protection to ensure they are properly installed and functioning. For homes in our area, we often recommend or install upgraded surge protection devices at the panel to divert dangerous voltage spikes from lightning strikes safely to the ground, safeguarding your expensive electronics and appliances.

Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) are safety devices required in modern homes that can trip due to legitimate hazards, minor wire damage, or even normal appliance operation. In the Upstate's older homes, aging wiring is a common culprit. Our electricians will meticulously trace the circuit to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a failing appliance, a loose connection, or compromised wiring. We then provide a clear, expert repair to restore safe, reliable power and prevent nuisance trips.

First, ensure safety by checking for any signs of fire, burning smells, or damaged outlets. If you see or smell anything concerning, leave the area and call 911. For less obvious issues like non-working outlets or appliances, the safest step is to turn off the main breaker and contact Five State Electric. Our emergency electricians can perform a targeted inspection to assess for surge damage, test your breakers and GFCIs, and make the necessary repairs to get your home's electrical system back to safe operation.
