Electrical Company Franklin Square NY | Call R & G Electrical Contractors

A professional electrical inspection by R & G evaluates your home's entire system, including grounding, wiring integrity, and surge protection. In Franklin Square, where older wiring can be common, we check for proper grounding at outlets and assess if your electrical panel can handle modern loads. We often recommend and install whole-house surge protectors at the main panel, which act as a first line of defense against voltage spikes from the grid, safeguarding your expensive appliances like refrigerators, computers, and HVAC systems.

Yes, a warm or hot electrical panel is a serious warning sign of overheating, a common issue in Franklin Square due to increased energy demands on older panels. Our electrical inspection specifically tests for this. We measure the panel's load capacity, check for loose or corroded connections that generate heat, and assess the condition of the breakers. The inspection report will detail if your current panel is overloaded and at risk, and we'll provide solutions, such as a panel upgrade or repair, to eliminate this fire hazard and ensure safe operation.

Our Franklin Square-focused inspection goes beyond a standard check. We pay close attention to issues prevalent in local homes. This includes evaluating the age and capacity of the main electrical panel for signs of strain or overheating, testing for proper grounding—especially in older neighborhoods—inspecting wiring in attics and basements for deterioration, and checking for adequate GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms, which is crucial for safety. We also assess the overall system's ability to handle modern appliances without causing damaging power surges.
