Klughart Mechanical & General Contractors | Local Electrical Repair in Springfield, IL

During our inspection, we perform a thorough thermal scan and physical check of all outlets. We look for signs of heat damage, test for loose wiring connections that cause arcing and overheating, and assess if the circuit is overloaded—a common issue in older Springfield homes. Identifying and correcting this prevents potential fire hazards.

We specifically test outlets with a ground fault circuit interpreter (GFCI) tester and verify the integrity of the grounding electrode system. Many local homes, especially those built before modern codes, may have outdated or absent grounding. We ensure your system properly directs fault currents safely into the earth, protecting you from shock and appliance damage.

Springfield has many beautiful, historic homes that may have outdated electrical systems not designed for today's power demands. Our inspection reveals hidden issues like aluminum wiring, insufficient amperage, and the grounding problems mentioned. This gives you peace of mind and can prevent costly, dangerous surprises after you move in.
