Frequently Asked Questions
My lights in Kent keep flickering. Could this be a serious issue?
Yes, flickering lights in your Kent home can indicate a serious underlying problem, such as loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a failing connection at your main electrical panel. These issues are not just a nuisance; they pose a fire risk. Globe Electric recommends a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the cause. We'll check your wiring, circuits, and electrical panel to diagnose the problem and provide a safe, permanent repair to protect your home and family.
Can a power surge damage my appliances, and how can I prevent it?
Absolutely. Power surges, often caused by issues with the local grid or lightning, can instantly fry the sensitive electronics in your appliances. The best defense is a professional-grade solution installed at your electrical panel. Globe Electric offers whole-house surge protector installation, which acts as a first line of defense for your entire home's electrical system. For critical appliances or during frequent outages, we also install backup generators to provide clean, stable power and prevent surge damage from utility fluctuations.
My circuit breaker trips often. Do I need a panel repair or a full replacement?
Frequent tripping in your Kent home is a clear sign your electrical panel is struggling, often due to increased modern electrical demands. It could be a simple repair, like replacing a faulty breaker, or it may indicate you need a panel upgrade to handle your home's load safely. Our electricians will perform a detailed inspection of your panel and wiring. We'll determine if a repair will suffice or if an installation of a new, higher-capacity panel is necessary to eliminate the tripping and ensure your system is safe and up to code.
