FAQs

My breaker keeps tripping in my Hilo home. Is this a common issue and what can you do?

Yes, breaker panel overloads and arc fault breaker trips are frequent concerns in Hilo homes, often due to older wiring or increased electrical demands from appliances and electronics. Inouye Electric can diagnose the specific cause, which might be a faulty breaker, overloaded circuits, or wiring issues. Our solutions often include repairing or upgrading the electrical panel, adding dedicated circuits, or rewiring sections of your home to ensure safe, reliable power distribution that meets modern needs.

Can Inouye Electric handle both the electrical and solar panel parts of a new PV system installation?

Absolutely. With specialized experience in both standard electrical systems and photovoltaic (PV) technology, we provide a seamless, integrated service. Our team manages the complete electrical side, including panel upgrades if needed, conduit runs, and interconnection wiring, while also installing and configuring the solar array components. This single-source approach ensures your entire solar energy system is installed correctly, efficiently, and up to code for optimal performance and safety.

What's involved in an electrical panel upgrade or replacement for an older home?

Upgrading an electrical panel is a detailed process we perform regularly. It starts with a thorough inspection of your current system and home's power needs. We then safely disconnect power, remove the old panel, and install a new, higher-capacity unit with modern safety features like AFCI and GFCI protection. This often includes updating the meter box and may involve some rewiring. The result is a safer electrical system that can support today's appliances and provides room for future additions, all performed by our licensed and insured electricians.
