Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in a standard electrical inspection for my Ephrata home?

Our thorough electrical inspection involves checking your main service panel for capacity and safety, testing outlets and switches for proper function and grounding, evaluating wiring conditions, and assessing all lighting fixtures. We pay special attention to local issues, such as checking for signs of moisture in outlets—a common concern here—and verifying that your grounding system is intact and effective. This inspection gives you a clear picture of your home's electrical health and any recommended repairs or upgrades.

I need an EV charger installed. How does Shak Electric handle this service?

We handle EV charger installations from start to finish. First, we assess your home's electrical panel to ensure it can support the added load safely, which may involve discussing an upgrade if needed. We then recommend a charger model suited to your vehicle and usage, handle all permitting with local authorities, and perform a neat, code-compliant installation. Our goal is to provide a reliable, convenient charging solution that integrates seamlessly with your home's existing electrical system.

My outdoor outlets stopped working after a heavy rain. Can you help?

Absolutely. Water intrusion in outdoor (and sometimes indoor) outlets is a frequent issue we address for homeowners in the Ephrata area. This often requires replacing the damaged outlet with a new, weather-resistant model and ensuring the wiring and junction box are completely dry and secure. More importantly, we'll investigate the cause—such as faulty seals or improper installation—to prevent future problems. Addressing this promptly is crucial for safety, as water and electricity are a dangerous combination.
