Professional Electrical Company in Tacoma, WA 98417 - People's Electric

Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs), now required in Tacoma homes, are sensitive to protect against fire. Frequent trips can be caused by older appliances, faulty wiring, or even a damaged underground cable affecting the circuit. Our electricians perform a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's in an outlet, switch, or the wiring itself—and provide a safe, permanent repair or replacement to restore reliable power to your home.

Upgrading your electrical panel is often the best solution for modern power demands and recurring issues like breaker trips. Our process starts with an inspection of your current system and home's needs. We then install a new, higher-capacity panel with modern safety breakers (including AFCIs), ensuring all connections are secure and up to current National Electrical Code standards for Tacoma. This not only resolves immediate problems but also provides a safe foundation for future home improvements.

Damaged underground cables, common in our area due to soil and moisture, can cause power fluctuations, breaker trips, or a complete loss of power to parts of your home. It's a serious safety hazard. People's Electric safely locates the fault, excavates the minimal necessary area, removes the old cable, and installs new, durable, direct-burial rated cable. We ensure the new installation is protected and up to code, restoring safe and consistent electricity to your exterior lights, outlets, or other affected circuits.
