Harris Electric Company of Wilmington | Qualified Electrical Services in Wilmington, NC

A professional electrical inspection from our Wilmington team checks the critical connections and load calculations for your generator system. We ensure your transfer switch is properly installed, wired, and integrated with your home's main panel. This proactive service identifies wear, corrosion, or faulty components that are common in our coastal environment, preventing the switch from failing when you need it most during a power outage.

After a storm, our inspection report will detail any surge damage to sensitive electronics, outlets, and your main electrical panel. We specifically check for burnt connections, tripped breakers that won't reset, and the condition of your whole-house surge protector. For Wilmington homes, we emphasize evaluating the grounding system, as proper grounding is essential for diverting lightning surges safely away from your home's wiring.

Older wiring in historic Wilmington homes may not handle the increased electrical loads of modern appliances or provide adequate protection against surges. Our inspections assess the capacity and safety of your existing system, identifying outdated components that are more susceptible to damage from coastal humidity, salt air, and frequent electrical storms. This helps us recommend upgrades, like enhanced surge protection or panel updates, to safeguard your home.
