Question Answers

Why does my arc fault breaker keep tripping, and can Toft Electric fix it?

Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) are safety devices that can trip due to wiring issues, damaged cords, or even appliances. In older Royal homes, outdated wiring is a common culprit. Toft Electric can perform a detailed inspection to pinpoint the exact cause, which could be in the wiring, a light fixture, or an outlet. We then perform the necessary repair or replacement to stop the nuisance trips while keeping your home's electrical system safe and compliant.

What should I do if I see corrosion on my home's electrical meter in Royal?

Corrosion on the electrical meter or masthead is a serious issue often caused by Iowa's weather. It can lead to power flickers, higher bills, and even a fire hazard. Do not attempt to handle this yourself, as it involves the utility company's equipment. Contact Toft Electric. We will safely inspect the meter base and the connections on your side of the meter, coordinate with the utility if needed, and perform any necessary repairs or replacements to your service panel and wiring to ensure a safe, reliable connection.

Can installing a generator help with frequent electrical issues in Royal?

Yes. While a generator won't fix underlying wiring problems, it provides critical backup power during outages that can be caused by storms or grid issues. More importantly, Toft Electric's professional generator installation includes integrating it with your home's electrical panel via a transfer switch. This process often involves a full panel inspection and upgrade, which can reveal and resolve hidden issues, making your entire electrical system more robust and reliable for everyday use, not just during outages.
