Frequently Asked Questions

My home in Selma has older wiring and my electrical panel feels warm. Can Ricks Electric help?

Yes, this is a common concern in many Selma homes. We specialize in evaluating aging electrical systems. A safety inspection can identify overloaded circuits or faulty wiring causing your panel to overheat. We provide clear recommendations, which often include a panel upgrade or replacement to meet modern safety standards and handle your home's current electrical demands, preventing potential hazards.

I need to install new light fixtures and outlets in my home. What does that process involve?

Our process starts with understanding your vision and assessing your existing wiring to ensure compatibility and safety. For fixture installation, we securely mount and wire the new unit, ensuring proper grounding. For outlets, including specialized installations like GFCIs for kitchens and bathrooms, we replace the old device, test for correct voltage and polarity, and ensure a secure fit. We clean up the work area and explain the operation of your new fixtures and outlets before we leave.

Why might my home need an electrical panel replacement or upgrade?

Panel upgrades are often needed for safety and functionality. If your home still has a fuse box or a low-amperage panel (like 60-100 amps), it may not safely support modern appliances, leading to frequent trips or overheating. Upgrading to a 200-amp panel provides more circuits, enhances safety with updated breakers, and accommodates future additions like electric vehicle chargers or home offices. We can evaluate your panel during an inspection and advise if an upgrade is right for your Selma home.
