Experienced Electricians in Chattanooga, TN 37406 - J&J Electrical Contracting

Our comprehensive electrical inspection thoroughly evaluates your home's entire system. For grounding—a common issue in older Chattanooga homes—we check your main grounding electrode, panel grounding, and individual outlet grounding. We test for proper connections to earth and ensure your system safely directs stray voltage away from your home, protecting you from shock and preventing damage to sensitive electronics.

In Chattanooga, where storms can cause power outages, a generator is a great asset. However, an improper transfer switch installation can backfeed power into utility lines, creating a deadly hazard for utility workers and neighbors. Our inspection ensures your home's panel can handle the added load and that a transfer switch is installed correctly and safely, keeping your family and community protected during an outage.

Absolutely. Flickering lights can be a symptom of a poor or failing grounding system, which is a frequent finding in our local inspections. Improper grounding can cause unstable voltage and pose a serious shock risk. We recommend a professional inspection to diagnose the root cause—whether it's a single faulty connection, outdated wiring, or a main grounding issue—and provide a safe, permanent solution for your Chattanooga home.
