Frequently Asked Questions

Why is an electrical inspection important for my older Perris home?

Many older homes in Perris have electrical systems that weren't designed for today's high-powered appliances and devices. An inspection by Lightning Bolt Electrical can identify specific hazards like outdated aluminum wiring, overloaded circuits, and faulty panels that pose serious fire and safety risks. It's a proactive step to ensure your family's safety and your home's electrical reliability.

What does your electrical inspection specifically check for regarding aluminum wiring?

Our thorough inspection for Perris homes includes a dedicated check for aluminum wiring, which was commonly used in the 1960s and 70s. We examine connection points at outlets, switches, and the main panel for signs of overheating, corrosion, and improper repairs—the main causes of fire hazards. We'll provide a clear assessment and recommend the safest repair or upgrade options, such as COPALUM crimp connectors or a complete rewiring to copper.

If my inspection finds aluminum wiring, what are my options to make it safe?

Safety is our top priority. We offer several solutions tailored to your home and budget. The most recommended and permanent fix is a complete rewiring with modern copper. For a targeted approach, we can install special COPALUM connectors at all connections, which are certified for aluminum wiring safety. We will never suggest potentially dangerous stop-gap measures like pigtailing with standard wire nuts. Our experts will explain all options so you can make an informed decision for your Perris home.
