Frequently Asked Questions
How can an electrical inspection help prepare my Yucaipa home for wildfire season?
A thorough electrical inspection by Howell Electric is a key safety step. We identify and correct potential fire hazards like faulty wiring or overloaded circuits that can be dangerous during high winds or PSPS events. We can also recommend and install whole-home surge protectors to shield your appliances from damaging power surges when utility power is restored.
Can you upgrade my electrical panel to handle backup power during a Public Safety Power Shutoff?
Absolutely. Many older panels in Yucaipa homes aren't compatible with modern backup systems. We can upgrade your electrical panel and install a manual or automatic transfer switch. This allows you to safely connect a generator or integrate with a new solar battery system, keeping critical circuits like refrigeration and medical equipment running during an outage.
My smart lights and switches are malfunctioning after a power shutdown. Can you fix this?
Yes, this is a common issue in our area. PSPS events and surges can disrupt smart home networks. Our electricians specialize in diagnosing and repairing smart home wiring malfunctions. We ensure your low-voltage wiring, hubs, and switches are properly installed and grounded, restoring reliable control of your lighting, security, and climate systems.
