Frequently Asked Questions

Can an electrical inspection find out why my ceiling fan keeps failing in my Louisville home?

Absolutely. A common issue we see in older Louisville homes is improper or outdated wiring for ceiling fans, which places excess strain on the circuit. Our detailed electrical inspection specifically checks the wiring, box support, and switch controls for your fan. We'll identify if the failure is due to a loose connection, an overloaded circuit, or an incorrect installation, and provide a safe, permanent fix to restore reliable operation.

How does a loose electrical connection cause problems, and will an inspection catch it?

Loose connections are a major fire hazard and a frequent culprit behind flickering lights, warm outlets, and intermittent power loss in local homes. They create arcing and excessive heat. Yes, our professional inspection is designed to detect these hidden dangers. We thermally scan panels and outlets and physically check critical connections that homeowners can't see, identifying and securing loose terminals to eliminate the risk and ensure your home's safety.

Why should I get an electrical inspection for my older Louisville home before installing new lighting?

Older homes in our area often have electrical systems not designed for modern loads. Adding new lighting, especially on existing circuits, can overload wiring and exacerbate issues like loose connections. An inspection from Schell Electric assesses your system's capacity and condition first. This ensures your new installation is safe, prevents tripped breakers or damaged wiring, and gives you a clear roadmap for any necessary upgrades, saving you from future headaches and hazards.
