Questions and Answers
After a hurricane, my power is back but some outlets aren't working. What should I do?
This is a common issue after storm surges and flooding in Murrells Inlet. Water can damage wiring and outlets, creating a serious safety hazard. Do not use the non-working outlets. Contact Mike's Electrical Service for a thorough safety inspection. We'll check for water damage, test your circuits, and perform any necessary wire repair or outlet replacement to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and fully functional.
My electrical panel feels warm and makes a humming sound. Is this an emergency?
An overheating panel is a critical warning sign, especially in our older Murrells Inlet homes that may have outdated systems. It often indicates an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or a failing breaker, which can lead to a fire. We treat this as an urgent situation. Our team can perform emergency panel repair or recommend a safe, code-compliant panel upgrade to handle modern electrical demands and protect your home.
Should I consider a generator installation for hurricane season in Murrells Inlet?
Absolutely. A professionally installed standby or portable generator is a smart investment for coastal living. Mike's Electrical Service handles the complete installation, including critical transfer switch setup to safely isolate your home from the main grid. This prevents back-feeding, which is dangerous for utility workers. We'll ensure your generator is correctly sized and wired to power essential circuits, keeping your lights, refrigerator, and sump pump running during an outage.
