Gaeth Electric | Experienced Electricians in Brookfield, WI

Absolutely. During a standard electrical inspection, our technicians specifically test and verify the operation of generator transfer switches, a common point of failure in our area. We check for proper installation, secure connections, and correct functionality to ensure your backup power system will operate safely and reliably when you need it most.

Loose connections can develop over time due to thermal cycling (wires expanding and contracting with use) and normal vibration. During an inspection, we use thermal imaging cameras and manual testing to identify hotspots and points of resistance that indicate loose terminals in outlets, switches, and panels. Finding and tightening these connections prevents potential arcing, overheating, and fire hazards.

Many electrical problems, like deteriorating insulation or gradually loosening connections, develop unseen behind walls. A professional inspection acts as a preventative health check for your home's electrical system. It can identify these hidden issues common in our community before they lead to inconvenient outages, damage to appliances, or safety risks, providing peace of mind and potentially saving on costly emergency repairs later.
