Frequently Asked Questions
My arc fault breakers keep tripping in my Laurel home. What could be causing this, and how can you help?
Frequent AFCI trips are a common issue in older Laurel homes and can be caused by aging wiring, loose connections, or even appliances with worn motors. This is a serious safety concern, as it indicates a potential arc fault that could lead to a fire. At R E Newcomb Electric, we start with a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the exact cause. Our solution may involve targeted wiring repairs, upgrading outdated circuits, or replacing the breaker itself to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and code-compliant.
I'm worried my electrical panel is overheating. What services do you offer to address this?
An overheating panel is a critical warning sign of an overloaded system or faulty components, which is a major fire risk. Our first step is a safety-focused inspection to assess the load on your panel and check for damaged breakers or connections. Based on our findings, we may recommend a panel repair, a service upgrade to increase your home's capacity, or a full panel replacement with a modern, safer model. We also install whole-house generators, which can help manage load and provide backup power, reducing strain on your main panel during outages.
How can your fire protection services and generator installation help prevent electrical issues in my home?
Our integrated approach focuses on prevention and backup. Our fire protection services include installing advanced smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and ensuring all AFCI/GFCI protection is up to date to stop electrical fires before they start. Furthermore, a professionally installed backup generator by our team provides clean, stable power during storms, which prevents damaging power surges and brownouts that can overheat panels and damage sensitive electronics. This two-pronged strategy proactively safeguards your Laurel home and family.
