Electrical Contractor Birmingham AL | Call Tarrant City Electric Dept

Our thorough electrical inspections specifically check for outdated aluminum wiring, which is common in older Birmingham homes built between the 1960s and 1970s. We examine connections for signs of overheating, corrosion, or loose terminals that can create fire hazards. If we find aluminum wiring, we'll recommend safe solutions like proper pigtailing with copper connectors or complete rewiring to meet current safety standards.

Common signs include the generator failing to power essential circuits, intermittent operation, or the switch not transferring back to utility power properly. During our electrical inspection, we test the entire transfer switch system, check connections, and verify it meets local Birmingham codes. We can repair faulty switches or install new ones that reliably handle power transitions during Alabama's frequent storms.

A professional inspection gives us a complete picture of your electrical system's condition. For aluminum wiring, we need to assess the entire circuit rather than just visible outlets. For generators, we must ensure your home's electrical panel can safely handle the transfer switch installation. Our inspection helps us create a prioritized, cost-effective plan that addresses Birmingham's specific electrical safety needs.
