Sonar Electrical Co - Chicago's Expert Electrical Services

An electrical inspection by a licensed professional, like our team at Sonar Electrical Co, is crucial for identifying hidden hazards, ensuring your system is up to current Chicago codes, and preventing potential fire risks. It's especially important for older homes in the area, as we can check for common local issues like outdated aluminum wiring or overloaded breaker panels that might not be obvious to homeowners.

In Chicago, we frequently handle two key safety concerns. The first is aluminum wiring, common in homes built from the mid-60s to mid-70s, which can pose a fire hazard if connections loosen over time. We safely evaluate and remediate these systems. The second is breaker panel overloads, where older panels can't safely handle modern electrical demands, leading to frequent trips or overheating. We assess your panel's capacity and recommend safe upgrades if needed.

Our troubleshooting process is methodical and safety-focused. Drawing on over 50 years of experience, we start by diagnosing the root cause of the short or outage, whether it's in a specific circuit, an appliance, or your main panel. We systematically check wiring, connections, breakers, and outlets to pinpoint the issue accurately. Once identified, we provide a clear explanation and a straightforward repair plan to restore your power safely and reliably.
