Electrical Contractor Kew Gardens NY | Call Sr Electric

In Kew Gardens' many historic homes, aging wiring is a primary cause of short circuits. Our comprehensive electrical inspection meticulously examines your entire system, identifying deteriorated insulation, overloaded circuits, and faulty connections that pose a fire risk. We then provide a clear report and recommendations for necessary repairs or upgrades to modern safety standards, proactively preventing dangerous shorts and protecting your home.

A properly installed transfer switch is critical for safety and functionality. It safely isolates your home's wiring from the public grid when your generator is running, protecting utility workers and preventing backfeed. Our expert installation ensures your generator powers only your essential circuits correctly, complies with all local codes in Queens, and provides reliable automatic or manual switching so your family stays comfortable during a Kew Gardens power outage.

For older homes in our area, we focus on common trouble spots: knob-and-tube or outdated aluminum wiring, insufficient grounding, overloaded fuse boxes or panels, and circuits without modern AFCI/GFCI protection. We check for proper capacity for today's appliance loads and signs of overheating. Our goal is to give you a complete picture of your system's health and a practical plan to address any safety concerns specific to Kew Gardens' classic architecture.
