Henzel Electric Co: Emergency Electrical Company Serving Albany 12207

Absolutely. A thorough electrical inspection from Henzel Electric Co includes a detailed check of your generator's transfer switch, a common point of failure in our area. We test its operation, verify proper wiring connections to prevent back-feeding, and ensure it meets current safety codes, giving you reliable backup power during Albany's storm-related outages.

Many of Albany's beautiful older homes still have original wiring, like knob-and-tube, which can degrade and cause short circuits. Our inspection meticulously examines your home's wiring, outlets, and breaker panel for worn insulation, overloaded circuits, and faulty connections that are fire hazards. Identifying these issues early prevents dangerous shorts and costly damage.

Be alert for signs like flickering lights, frequently tripped breakers, or a burning smell from outlets—common indicators of the short circuits we see in older Albany wiring. For generator issues, if your generator runs but power doesn't transfer to your house, or you hear unusual clicks from the switch, it's time for a professional inspection to diagnose the problem safely.
