Yes, meter overheating can occur due to increased energy demands or aging connections, especially during our hot Texas summers. This is a serious safety hazard. Immediately call RES Electric for an emergency inspection. Our electricians will safely assess the meter base, main service panel, and connections to identify the cause—such as loose lugs or corrosion—and perform the necessary repairs or panel upgrade to restore safe operation.

Rodents often chew wiring in attics, garages, and under homes, which can cause shorts, flickering lights, or even fires. During an electrical inspection, we look for telltale signs like nesting materials, gnaw marks on sheathing, or tripped breakers on specific circuits. We safely de-energize the affected area, remove the damaged wire sections, and install new, code-compliant wiring, often adding protective conduit or rodent deterrents to prevent future issues.

Absolutely. A proactive electrical inspection is the best defense. We'll check your entire system, focusing on the main electric panel and meter connections for signs of overheating stress, and inspect vulnerable areas for rodent activity or outdated wiring. Based on our findings, we might recommend a panel upgrade, installing arc-fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs), or rewiring specific circuits. This preventative approach enhances safety and can prevent costly emergency repairs down the line.
