Electrical Contractor Brookings OR | Call Gowman Electric

Absolutely. Our electrical inspections specifically check your home's transfer switch and the connection to your generator. We look for corrosion from salty air, loose connections, and proper grounding—common issues here that can cause failure when you need backup power most. A proactive inspection ensures your system is ready for coastal weather events.

Safety first: Do not touch the outlet. Turn off the circuit at your breaker panel immediately. Contact us right away. Our electricians are experienced with water intrusion common in our damp climate. We will safely assess the damage, replace the compromised components with weather-resistant fittings rated for coastal conditions, and ensure the circuit is properly protected to prevent future hazards.

Older homes in our area often have wiring not designed for today's electrical loads and may have degraded due to moisture. Our inspection identifies outdated systems like knob-and-tube wiring, checks for proper GFCI protection in damp areas like garages and exteriors, and verifies that your panel can safely handle modern appliances. This is crucial for preventing fires and ensuring your home meets current safety standards.
