Frequently Asked Questions

What should I expect during an electrical inspection from Schmidt Electrical?

Our electrical inspections are thorough evaluations conducted by our experienced electricians. We'll assess your property's wiring, panels, outlets, and safety systems to ensure everything is up to current National Electrical Code (NEC) standards and functioning safely. For businesses and farms, we pay special attention to the specific demands of your operations, checking for any potential hazards, overloaded circuits, or outdated components. We provide a clear, detailed report of our findings and practical recommendations for any repairs or upgrades needed to keep your property safe and efficient.

How does Schmidt Electrical help with outdoor outlet and conduit damage from Platteville winters?

The freeze-thaw cycles in our area can cause significant damage to outdoor electrical components. Water seeps into conduits or outlets, freezes, and expands, which can crack housings, damage wires, and create serious shock or fire hazards. Our team is familiar with this common local issue. We use weatherproof, frost-resistant materials rated for our climate and ensure proper installation techniques—like correct sealing, grading, and the use of heated enclosures where necessary—to prevent moisture intrusion. If you have existing damage, we can safely repair or replace compromised outlets and conduits with durable solutions built to withstand Wisconsin winters.

Do you handle electrical work for farms and agricultural buildings?

Yes, serving farms is a core part of our business. We have extensive experience with the complex electrical needs of agricultural operations, from wiring new pole barns and machine sheds to upgrading service for modern livestock facilities and grain handling systems. We understand the importance of reliable, safe power for your livelihood and design systems that can handle the demands of farm equipment while adhering to all safety codes. Our team works around your schedule to minimize disruption to your daily operations.
