Heritage Electric | Trusted Electrical Company in Campbell, CA

A comprehensive electrical inspection from Heritage Electric is crucial for homes with aluminum wiring, a common issue in many Campbell-area houses built during certain periods. Our experts meticulously check for signs of overheating, corrosion, and loose connections at outlets and switches—all potential fire hazards unique to aluminum wiring. We'll provide a detailed report and recommend proven, code-compliant solutions, such as installing specialized connectors (AlumiConn or COPALUM) to ensure your home's safety.

Campbell's weather can lead to water intrusion in outdoor outlets, which is a serious safety hazard. During an inspection, we specifically check these outlets for proper sealing, correct installation of In-Use covers, and any signs of moisture damage or corrosion inside the box. We ensure they are Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected, which is critical for preventing electrocution. Addressing these issues protects your home from short circuits, breaker trips, and potential electrical fires.

Our electrical inspections are thorough safety evaluations tailored for Campbell homes. Beyond checking for aluminum wiring and outdoor outlet issues, we assess your entire electrical system. This includes testing all GFCIs and AFCIs (Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupters), verifying proper grounding, ensuring your electrical panel is correctly labeled and not overloaded, and looking for any outdated or unsafe DIY modifications. Our goal is to give you peace of mind with a complete picture of your home's electrical health.
