Questions and Answers

How can an electrical inspection help with my generator transfer switch problems in Brooklyn?

A professional electrical inspection from L&H Electric checks the entire transfer switch system, including connections, wiring, and its integration with your home's main panel and the generator. We identify loose connections, corrosion, or incorrect wiring—common issues in Brooklyn's varied older homes—that prevent the switch from operating correctly during a power outage, ensuring your backup power is ready when you need it most.

Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping, and can an inspection fix it?

Arc fault breakers (AFCIs) are sensitive safety devices required by modern code to prevent electrical fires. They can trip due to normal appliance arcing (like from older vacuums or power tools), damaged wire insulation, or loose connections within your walls. Our detailed electrical inspection pinpoints the exact cause—whether it's a specific appliance, a wiring issue common in Brooklyn's aging housing stock, or a faulty breaker itself—and provides a clear solution to restore reliable power.

What should I expect during a Brooklyn home electrical inspection focused on these issues?

Our Brooklyn-focused inspection is a thorough evaluation. For transfer switches, we test the automatic operation, verify proper grounding, and check for compliance with local codes. For nuisance AFCI tripping, we methodically test circuits and connected appliances to isolate the fault. We provide a clear, prioritized report explaining any issues found, the immediate risks, and your repair options, helping you make informed decisions to improve your home's safety and functionality.
