Shapleigh Electrician | Electrical Inspections & Repair | Schultz Power Systems

Our comprehensive inspection focuses on the issues common in our area. We meticulously check your entire grounding system for safety and code compliance, test all arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) to diagnose nuisance tripping, and evaluate your panel, wiring, and outlets. The goal is to identify any hidden hazards or inefficiencies specific to older or rural Maine homes, giving you a clear report and prioritized recommendations to ensure your home is safe and reliable.

Absolutely. Frequent AFCI trips are a common issue we address. During our inspection, we don't just reset the breaker; we systematically trace the circuit to locate the source of the arc fault. This could be caused by damaged wire insulation, a loose connection, or a faulty appliance—problems that are often hidden within walls. Our expert diagnosis pinpoints the exact cause, allowing us to make a precise, permanent repair that stops the nuisance trips and restores safety to your circuit.

Proper grounding is your home's first line of defense against electrical surges, especially important in areas with older wiring or frequent storms. An improper or outdated grounding system can lead to shock hazards, damaged electronics, and unreliable power. Our inspection includes a thorough evaluation of your grounding rods, clamps, and conductor connections. If we find issues, we can upgrade your system to current NEC standards, ensuring your family and your home's electrical devices are protected from dangerous faults and surges.
