Q&A

What does a standard electrical inspection cover in my Allentown home, and can it identify grounding problems?

Our standard electrical inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of your home's wiring, panels, outlets, and safety devices. It is specifically designed to detect improper grounding, a common issue in older Allentown homes, which can create serious shock and fire hazards. We check for correct grounding at the main panel and individual circuits, ensuring your system meets current safety codes.

I'm having issues with my generator transfer switch. Can Makhoul Electric inspect and repair it?

Absolutely. Generator transfer switch problems are a frequent call we get from local homeowners, especially after storms. Our electricians will inspect the switch, its wiring, and connection to your main panel to diagnose the issue—whether it's a faulty switch, incorrect installation, or a wiring problem. We ensure your backup power system activates safely and reliably when you need it most.

Why is an electrical inspection recommended before installing a major new appliance or renovating in the Lehigh Valley?

Older electrical systems in our area may not handle the increased load from modern appliances or added lighting. An inspection by Makhoul Electric assesses your panel's capacity, wiring condition, and overall safety. This proactive step helps prevent overloaded circuits, which can cause breaker trips, damage to new equipment, or even fire, ensuring your renovation upgrades are built on a safe electrical foundation.
