Integrity Electric - San Marcos's Top-Rated Electricians

When power is abruptly cut and then restored during Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS), it can cause dangerous surges. Our inspection checks your entire system—from the main panel to individual circuits—for loose connections, outdated components, and insufficient grounding that are vulnerable to these events. We identify and fix these weak points *before* a shutdown occurs, helping prevent electrical fires and damage when power returns.

Given our area's susceptibility to surges, a proper inspection from Integrity Electric goes beyond basic code checks. We evaluate the need for and can install whole-house surge protectors at your main panel, which is the first line of defense for your entire home. We also inspect the condition of your grounding system and recommend point-of-use protectors for sensitive electronics, creating a layered defense tailored to local conditions.

Absolutely. Surges can degrade wiring insulation and damage components inside appliances, outlets, and your electrical panel without immediate visible signs. Our thorough inspection uses testing equipment to check for compromised insulation, test GFCI/AFCI breakers that may have been weakened, and assess the health of your panel. Finding and addressing this hidden damage prevents future failures and enhances safety.
