As your local Shelton electricians, we provide prompt emergency service for storm-related outages. We first safely assess the situation to determine if the issue is with your home's electrical system, such as a tripped main breaker or damaged wiring from fallen branches. We then work to restore power safely, checking for any hidden damage to your grounding or panel that could pose a future hazard, ensuring your system is resilient for the next storm.

During our inspections in Shelton, we pay close attention to grounding systems, which are vital for safety. Common local issues we find include older two-prong ungrounded outlets, corroded ground rods, undersized grounding wires, and improper connections to water pipes. We test the entire grounding system to ensure it provides a safe path for stray electrical current, which is essential for protecting your family and electronics, particularly during Connecticut's frequent thunderstorms.
