Q&A
Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping in my Mattoon home, and how can an inspection help?
AFCI breakers in Mattoon homes often trip due to hidden wiring issues, damaged cords, or appliances with internal faults. Our detailed electrical inspection involves specialized testing to locate the exact source of the arc fault—whether it's in a wall, an outlet, or an appliance. We don't just reset the breaker; we find and fix the underlying problem to prevent future trips and ensure your home meets modern safety standards.
What are the signs of an improper grounding system, and why is an inspection critical?
Signs in your home can include frequent electrical shocks from appliances, tingling sensations when touching fixtures, or non-functioning GFCI outlets. Improper grounding is a serious safety hazard, especially in older Mattoon homes. Our inspection includes testing your home's grounding electrodes and bonding to ensure they provide a safe path for stray electrical current, protecting you from shock and your electronics from damage.
How does a professional electrical inspection differ from a basic home check?
A professional inspection from Rawlings goes far beyond checking outlets. We perform a systematic evaluation of your entire electrical system, including load calculations, panel integrity, wiring condition, and safety device functionality. For local issues like grounding or AFCI trips, we use tools like circuit analyzers and ground resistance testers to provide a precise diagnosis and a clear plan for repair, giving you peace of mind and a documented record of your home's electrical health.
