FAQs
My older Columbia home keeps tripping breakers. Is this a short circuit, and how can Hendrickson Electric help?
Frequent breaker trips in older homes are often a sign of overloaded circuits or deteriorating wiring, which can lead to dangerous short circuits. Our electricians will perform a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the exact cause. We then provide solutions like circuit breaker repair or replacement, wire repair, or a full panel upgrade to modernize your system and restore safe, reliable power.
I'm installing a generator for storm outages. Why is the transfer switch so important, and can you handle it?
A generator transfer switch is critical for safety—it prevents back-feeding power into the grid, which could endanger utility workers and your home. Improper installation is a common local issue. Hendrickson Electric specializes in safe, code-compliant generator installation, including the correct sizing and setup of the automatic or manual transfer switch to ensure your backup power system operates seamlessly and safely when you need it most.
Can you upgrade my electrical panel to support both an EV charger and a generator?
Absolutely. Many Columbia homeowners are adding both EV chargers and generators, which require significant panel capacity. Our experts in electric panel installation and repair can assess your current service, perform any necessary upgrades or replacements, and ensure your system can safely handle these new loads. We manage the entire process, from permitting to final inspection, for a seamless upgrade.
