Patrick Lane Electric: Certified Electrical Contractor Serving Winston Salem 27105

Lightning and power surges are common here and can cause hidden damage to wiring and appliances. Our inspection includes checking your surge protection devices, evaluating your home's grounding system, and testing circuits for integrity. This helps identify vulnerabilities before they lead to a costly failure, ensuring your home's electrical system is prepared for our local weather.

Improper grounding is a frequent safety issue we find in Winston Salem homes. During an inspection, we meticulously test outlets for correct grounding, verify the integrity of your main grounding rod and connections, and ensure your electrical panel is properly bonded. Correcting grounding faults prevents shock hazards and protects your electronics from damage.

Given the local prevalence of older homes with outdated wiring and grounding issues, an inspection is crucial. We provide a detailed report on the system's safety and code compliance, highlighting concerns like aluminum wiring or insufficient circuits. This gives you peace of mind as a buyer or a strong negotiating point as a seller, addressing common local electrical problems upfront.
