Questions and Answers
Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my Millbrae home, and can an inspection help?
Arc fault breakers in older Millbrae homes can trip due to aging wiring, overloaded circuits, or appliances with motors. Our electric inspection is designed to pinpoint the exact cause, whether it's a wiring fault or a specific appliance. We'll provide a clear report and recommend the most effective fix to restore safety and prevent future nuisance trips.
How can an electrical inspection prepare my home for wildfire-related power shutdowns?
An inspection assesses your home's electrical readiness for outages. We check your main panel, grounding, and critical circuits to ensure they are in safe, working order before a shutdown occurs. This allows us to recommend and install any necessary upgrades or backup solutions, like generator hookups, so you're better prepared when PG&E issues a PSPS warning in our area.
What does MTW Builders look for during a standard electric inspection?
Our Millbrae electric inspection is comprehensive. We examine your electrical panel for wear, test arc fault and GFCI breakers for proper function, check wiring for damage or code violations, and assess outdoor connections vulnerable to local weather. The goal is to identify any fire hazards or points of failure, giving you peace of mind about your home's electrical safety.
