Corydon Electrician | Home Electrical Inspection & Repair | Shaffer Electric

In our area, older homes often have wiring that wasn't designed for modern ceiling fans, leading to overheating and failure. Our comprehensive electrical inspection checks the wiring in your ceiling box for proper gauge, secure connections, and correct load capacity. We identify if your existing wiring can safely support a fan or if an upgrade is needed, preventing wobbling, motor burnout, or potential fire hazards common in Corydon homes.

Generator transfer switches in Southern Indiana can fail due to moisture, corrosion, or infrequent use, leaving you without backup power during a storm. Our inspection tests the entire switch mechanism, verifies safe electrical isolation from the utility grid (critical for lineman safety), and ensures all connections are tight and corrosion-free. This proactive check guarantees your generator will kick in reliably when you need it most, protecting your home and family.

Beyond standard code checks, we focus on local issues. We look for signs of overloaded circuits from added appliances, inspect outdoor and crawl space wiring for rodent damage (common here), test grounding systems crucial for our weather, and evaluate the main panel's capacity and condition. Our goal is to give you a clear picture of your home's electrical health and a prioritized plan to fix the problems we find, ensuring safety and preventing costly emergencies.
