Electrical Contractor Bellefontaine OH | Call Thompson Electric

Our thorough electrical inspection is a preventative health check for your home's wiring. We systematically examine your electrical panel for proper amperage and safety, test outlets and switches for correct function and grounding, verify GFCI protection in wet areas like kitchens and bathrooms, and assess the overall system for any outdated or hazardous components. Given the local issues with moisture and outlet failures, we pay special attention to signs of water intrusion and the condition of your GFCIs. The inspection provides a clear report, helping you prioritize any needed repairs for safety and efficiency.

Yes, due to our climate, GFCI outlet failures and moisture-related tripping are frequent concerns for local homeowners. These outlets are safety devices designed to shut off power when they detect a ground fault, often triggered by humidity or water intrusion. We can diagnose the specific cause—whether it's a faulty outlet, wiring compromised by moisture, or an overloaded circuit. Our solution typically involves replacing the malfunctioning GFCI with a new, weather-resistant model, ensuring it's properly sealed and installed to prevent future moisture problems and restore safe, reliable power.
