FAQs
Can a professional electrical inspection identify problems with my generator's transfer switch?
Absolutely. A comprehensive electrical inspection from Holzner Electric includes testing your generator's transfer switch—a common point of failure in our area. We check for proper operation, signs of wear, and correct wiring to ensure it will safely switch your home to backup power during an outage, giving you peace of mind.
How does an inspection help with aluminum wiring in my Newtown home?
Aluminum wiring, common in homes built from the mid-1960s to mid-1970s, can pose fire hazards due to expansion and corrosion. Our detailed inspection identifies any loose connections, overheating signs, or improper terminations specific to aluminum wiring. We then provide expert recommendations, which may include specialized repairs like COPALUM crimps or AlumiConn connectors, to mitigate these risks effectively.
Why is an electrical inspection important before using my generator seasonally?
Before the storm season, an inspection is crucial for safety and reliability. We often find that transfer switches, which sit idle for months, can develop faults. Our inspection ensures the switch and its connection to your home's main panel are in perfect working order, preventing damage to your generator or home's electrical system when you activate it.
