Frequently Asked Questions
How can an electrical inspection from Reliance help prevent power surge damage to my appliances in Wilkes-Barre?
Our comprehensive electrical inspections check for outdated or faulty wiring, inadequate grounding, and overloaded circuits—common culprits that allow surge damage. We'll assess your home's electrical system, recommend necessary upgrades like whole-house surge protectors, and ensure your wiring can safely handle modern appliance loads, providing crucial protection against the surges common in our area.
What should I do if a storm causes an electrical outage in my Wilkes-Barre home?
First, check if your neighbors have power to determine if it's a localized issue. If it's just your home, check your main breaker panel. If resetting the breaker doesn't work, it's time to call a professional. Our electricians can safely diagnose storm-related damage, such as tripped GFCI outlets, shorted wiring, or damage to your service entrance, and perform the necessary repairs to restore your power safely.
Why is a professional electrical inspection important after a major storm in Northeastern Pennsylvania?
Storms can cause hidden water intrusion, physical damage to wiring, and voltage fluctuations that weaken your electrical system. An inspection by our licensed electricians identifies these latent issues—like corroded connections or compromised insulation—that could lead to future outages, fires, or appliance failure. It's a proactive step to ensure your family's safety and your home's electrical integrity.
