Q&A
My Wilmington home had a nearby lightning strike, and now several outlets aren't working. What should I do?
This is a common issue for our coastal area. Lightning surges can damage circuit breakers, outlets, and even your main electrical panel. First, check your panel for any tripped breakers. If the problem persists, it's crucial to have a professional inspection. For A Electric can diagnose surge damage, perform necessary outlet or wire repairs, and recommend whole-house surge protection to safeguard your home from future storms.
My house is older, and the lights frequently flicker. Is this a serious concern?
In many of Wilmington's charming older homes, flickering lights often point to aging wiring that can't handle modern electrical loads, which is a fire hazard. This isn't something to ignore. Our expert electricians can perform a thorough electrical inspection to identify unsafe wiring, outdated panels, or faulty connections. We then provide safe solutions like wire repair, panel upgrades, or circuit breaker replacements to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and reliable.
What are the signs that my electrical panel needs an upgrade or repair?
Frequent breaker trips, a burning smell near the panel, rust, or an inability to add new appliances are key warning signs. For older Wilmington homes, an outdated panel may also be ill-equipped to handle repeated lightning surges common to our region. For A Electric specializes in electrical panel installation and repair. Upgrading to a modern panel with proper surge protection enhances safety, prevents damage, and provides the capacity your home needs.
