Simtec Electric - Kailua's Certified Electrical Company

Many Kailua homes, especially older ones, have outdated or improper grounding, which is a serious safety risk. Our detailed electrical inspection includes a thorough check of your grounding electrode system and all grounded outlets. We'll identify any deficiencies, like missing ground rods or corroded connections common in our coastal climate, and provide a clear plan to bring your system up to the current National Electrical Code for your safety.

Hawaii's humidity and temperature fluctuations can cause wiring terminals to expand and contract, leading to loose connections over time. These are a major fire hazard. During our inspection, we methodically check panels, outlets, and switches for tightness and signs of arcing. We then securely fasten all connections and, if needed, replace damaged components to prevent overheating and ensure reliable power throughout your home.

Our Kailua-focused inspection goes beyond a standard check. We pay special attention to corrosion on panels and terminals due to salt air, the integrity of grounding systems in older construction, the condition of outdoor wiring for pools or lanais, and the capacity of your system for modern additions like solar or EV chargers. We provide a prioritized report explaining any issues found in plain terms and their solutions.
