Common Questions

Can an electrical inspection identify dangerous aluminum wiring in my Riverside home?

Yes, absolutely. A core part of our electrical inspection service is identifying the type of wiring in your home. Many older Riverside homes built in the 60s and 70s used aluminum wiring, which can pose a fire risk due to oxidation and loosening connections. Our inspection will locate any aluminum wiring, assess its condition, and we'll provide clear, expert recommendations for remediation to ensure your family's safety.

I want to install an EV charger, but my panel is old. Will an inspection tell me if my system can handle it?

Definitely. An electrical inspection is the crucial first step before installing any EV charger in Riverside. We'll evaluate your main electrical panel's capacity, the condition of your wiring, and your overall home's electrical load. This allows us to determine if your current system can support the new circuit or if an upgrade is needed to prevent dangerous overloads, ensuring a safe and efficient EV charging setup.

What does GM Electric look for during an inspection to prevent circuit overloads from new appliances?

Our Riverside electrical inspections are comprehensive. We check your main service panel's amperage, examine the wiring for proper gauge and condition, and map out your existing circuit loads. This helps us identify any circuits already operating at capacity. By understanding your home's full electrical picture, we can advise on safe installation locations for high-draw appliances like EV chargers, dryers, or AC units, preventing overloads that could lead to tripped breakers or fire hazards.
