M & M Electric Connection | Experienced Electrical Company in Golden, CO

Lightning strikes can send powerful surges through your home's wiring, damaging outlets, appliances, and even your electrical panel. An inspection by M & M Electric Connection can identify fried circuits, compromised GFCIs (especially on outdoor outlets), and weakened breakers that may not trip properly, preventing potential fire hazards and ensuring your system is safe.

In most cases, replacement is the safest option. When water seeps into an outdoor outlet and freezes, it can crack the housing, corrode internal components, and compromise its weatherproof seal. Our inspection will assess the damage, and we typically recommend installing a new, weather-resistant (WR) outlet with a proper in-use cover to prevent future freeze damage common in Golden winters.

Our thorough inspection checks your entire electrical system for safety and code compliance. We specifically look for issues prevalent in our area, including surge damage on panels and GFCIs, the condition of outdoor and garage outlets exposed to moisture and freezing temps, proper grounding, overloaded circuits, and the functionality of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The goal is to give you peace of mind about your home's electrical safety.
