Klasik Construction - Harrisburg's Local Electrical Contractor

Absolutely. Power surges are a common issue in our area and can severely damage appliances. A modern, properly sized electrical panel with high-quality circuit breakers is your first line of defense. Our electricians can assess your current system and install or upgrade your panel and breakers. We often recommend adding whole-home surge protection at the panel level, which acts as a 'shock absorber' for your entire electrical system, diverting dangerous voltage spikes away from your sensitive electronics and major appliances.

Generator transfer switch issues are a frequent local problem, often stemming from improper DIY installation. A transfer switch is a critical safety device that isolates your home's wiring from the main power grid when your generator is running. If installed incorrectly, it can backfeed electricity into utility lines, creating a deadly hazard for utility workers and neighbors. Our licensed electricians ensure your transfer switch is installed to exact code specifications, guaranteeing your generator powers only your home safely and automatically during an outage, without risking anyone's safety.

Yes, and we highly recommend it. When we install major appliances like water heaters or garbage disposals, it's an ideal time for a safety check. Our technicians will ensure the new unit is on a properly dedicated circuit—a common oversight that leads to tripped breakers or fire hazards. We'll also inspect the nearby outlets and wiring for signs of wear or damage that could be related to past power surges. This comprehensive approach during a routine service helps us catch small electrical issues in your Harrisburg home before they become expensive or dangerous problems.
