Hilliard's Electric - Ocala's Certified Electrical Company

Our electrical inspections specifically evaluate your home's surge protection. In Ocala's storm-prone climate, we check for properly installed whole-house surge protectors at your main panel and assess the condition of grounding rods and connections. This helps ensure a safe path for a lightning-induced power surge to be diverted into the ground, protecting your expensive appliances and electronics from costly damage.

Common signs include frequent breaker trips, tingling sensations from appliances or faucets, flickering lights, or electronics that malfunction without cause. These issues are serious safety risks, especially with Florida's sandy soil affecting ground conductivity. Our inspection includes testing your home's grounding system to ensure it meets code and safely directs stray electrical current away from you and your family.

An inspection by Hilliard's Electric provides peace of mind. For buyers, it uncovers hidden issues like outdated wiring, insufficient capacity for modern appliances, or inadequate grounding—common problems in older Ocala homes. For sellers, it demonstrates a commitment to safety and can prevent surprises during the buyer's inspection. We provide a detailed report to help you make informed decisions about your property.
