Electricians Riverside CA | Call Johnson Electrical Service

Absolutely. Our Riverside electrical inspections include evaluating your home's surge protection. We check your main panel, outlets, and overall system integrity to identify vulnerabilities. We can then recommend and install whole-house or point-of-use surge protectors, which are crucial in our area to shield computers, appliances, and home entertainment systems from damaging voltage spikes.

In Riverside, improper generator connections are a common and dangerous issue. A professional inspection ensures your generator is connected via a proper transfer switch, isolating it from the utility grid. This prevents 'back-feeding,' which can electrocute utility workers and damage your home's electrical system. We verify the connection is to code, safely rated for your home's load, and fully operational for when you need it most.

Our comprehensive inspection is tailored to local needs. We thoroughly examine your main service panel for corrosion or overload, test grounding systems, check wiring in attics (vulnerable to heat), inspect outdoor receptacles for weatherproofing, and assess the capacity for added loads like generators or EV chargers. The goal is to uncover any issues—like those causing surges or unsafe generator setups—before they become costly or hazardous problems.
