Absolutely. Generator transfer switches are a frequent point of failure, especially after sitting unused. Our electricians can diagnose if the issue is with the switch itself, improper installation, or a wiring fault. We service and repair all major brands to ensure your backup power activates reliably when you need it most during a New Bedford power outage.

Our comprehensive inspection evaluates your entire electrical system: panel, wiring, outlets, grounding, and safety devices. For New Bedford's many historic homes, this is crucial. Aging wiring may not handle modern appliance loads or meet current safety codes, increasing risk during storms. The inspection provides a clear report on your system's health and any recommended upgrades for safety and reliability.
