FAQs

Can an electrical inspection identify if my Arroyo Grande home has dangerous aluminum wiring?

Absolutely. A comprehensive electrical inspection by our licensed electricians is the first and most important step. We will carefully examine your home's wiring, outlets, and breaker panel to confirm the presence of aluminum wiring and assess its condition. If found, we can outline the necessary safety upgrades, such as installing COPALUM crimp connectors or complete rewiring, to eliminate the significant fire hazard.

Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my older home, and how can an inspection help?

Arc fault breakers (AFCIs) are designed to detect dangerous electrical arcs and shut off power. In older Arroyo Grande homes, they can nuisance trip due to aged wiring, loose connections, or appliances with older motors. Our electrical inspection pinpoints the exact circuit and cause of the tripping—whether it's a wiring issue needing repair or a compatibility problem—allowing us to fix the root cause and restore reliable, safe power to your rooms.

What should I expect during a home electrical inspection with Lewis Electric?

Our thorough inspection is a detailed evaluation of your entire electrical system. We'll test your outlets and GFCI/AFCI protection, inspect your breaker panel for correct amperage and safety, check for proper grounding, and examine visible wiring for hazards like aluminum or damage. You'll receive a clear, prioritized report of any issues—especially those common in our area—along with our expert recommendations to ensure your home is safe and up to code.
