Q&A
How can an electrical inspection protect my New Bern home from lightning surge damage?
A professional electrical inspection from Lumens Electric is crucial after a storm. Our electricians will thoroughly check your home's main service panel, grounding system, and surge protection devices for damage. Lightning strikes can send massive power surges through wiring, potentially frying appliances and creating hidden fire hazards. We identify and repair any compromised components to restore safety and prevent future costly damage, giving you confidence before the next storm season.
My home is older. What does an inspection look for with aging residential wiring?
For New Bern's historic and older homes, our inspections focus on wiring systems that may be outdated or deteriorating. We check for knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, insufficient circuits for modern loads, brittle insulation, and improper grounding. These are common issues that can lead to overheating, short circuits, and increased fire risk. Our inspection provides a clear report on your wiring's condition and prioritizes any necessary upgrades for safety and reliability.
What should I expect during a standard electrical inspection from Lumens Electric?
Our comprehensive inspection is a detailed evaluation of your home's electrical health. We'll examine your main service panel, circuit breakers, outlets, switches, light fixtures, and the overall wiring system. We test for proper grounding, check GFCI/AFCI protection in required areas (like kitchens and bathrooms), and look for any signs of overload or code violations. You'll receive a straightforward report explaining our findings, any immediate concerns, and recommendations to ensure your system is safe and efficient for your family's needs.
