Questions and Answers
Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my Columbia home, and how can an electrical inspection help?
Arc fault breakers are designed to protect your home from dangerous electrical arcs, which can be caused by damaged wiring, loose connections, or faulty appliances—common issues in older or settling homes. Our detailed electrical inspection pinpoints the exact source of the nuisance trips, whether it's in a specific circuit, an outlet, or within the walls, allowing us to make a precise and permanent repair to ensure your home's safety.
My generator won't switch on during a power outage. Can you check my transfer switch?
Absolutely. A malfunctioning generator transfer switch is a frequent issue, especially if it hasn't been tested or serviced regularly. During our electrical inspection, we will thoroughly test the transfer switch mechanism, check all electrical connections for corrosion or looseness, and verify its communication with your home's main panel and the generator itself. We'll diagnose whether the issue is electrical, mechanical, or a control signal problem and get your backup power system reliably operational.
What does a whole-home electrical inspection cover for Columbia residents?
Our inspection is a comprehensive safety check of your home's electrical system. We examine your main service panel and breakers (including AFCIs), test outlets for proper grounding and wiring, inspect visible wiring for damage, and assess major appliances and systems like your generator transfer switch. The goal is to identify any existing hazards—like those causing breaker trips—and potential future issues, providing you with a clear report and prioritized recommendations to keep your home safe and up to code.
