Electrical Contractor Derry NH | Call Lombard Electric

Absolutely. Our comprehensive electrical inspections specifically check for vulnerabilities that New England winters can exploit. We examine outdoor connections, service entry points, and attic wiring for signs of past moisture damage or wear that could lead to failures during heavy snow or ice storms. Identifying and securing these areas proactively is key to preventing outages and hazards.

This is a common issue in our area. Older wiring, often found in Derry's charming homes, can develop minor insulation cracks over time. During winter, when heating systems and additional lighting are in heavy use, these compromised wires are more likely to produce the harmless but detectable 'arcing' that triggers AFCI breakers. Our inspection can pinpoint the faulty circuit, and we can rewire the affected section to bring you safe, uninterrupted power.

First, check your main electrical panel for a tripped breaker. If the breakers seem fine, the issue could be with your service mast or weatherhead on the roof—ice accumulation or falling snow/ice can damage these components. For your safety, do not attempt to inspect roof-level equipment. Call us instead. We can safely assess for ice damage, make any necessary repairs to your exterior service equipment, and get your power restored.
