Certified Electricians in Carbondale, IL 62901 - Martin Gary Electric

Yes, absolutely. A comprehensive electrical inspection from our team includes a detailed check of your generator's transfer switch, which is a common point of failure in our area. We'll test the switch's operation, inspect the connections for corrosion or damage, and ensure it's properly integrated with your home's main electrical panel to provide reliable backup power when you need it most.

Our inspection focuses on finding the root cause of the nuisance tripping. We'll test each GFCI outlet for proper function, check for ground faults in the connected circuits (common in damp areas like basements or outdoors), and ensure the wiring is sound. Often, the issue is with a downstream appliance or wiring fault that the sensitive GFCI is correctly detecting, and we'll pinpoint it for you.

Local expertise matters because our weather and common home setups create specific challenges. A local electrician understands how seasonal humidity can affect connections and why reliable backup power is critical during our storms. We ensure your generator transfer switch is not only installed to code but is also configured to handle the local electrical grid's characteristics for seamless, automatic operation.
