Q&A

My home's electrical panel feels warm to the touch. Is this a common issue in Charleston, and can Transworld Electric help?

Yes, panel overheating is a concern we frequently address for Charleston homeowners, often due to aging systems or increased modern electrical demands. Our licensed electricians perform thorough inspections to diagnose the cause, whether it's faulty breakers, loose connections, or an overloaded panel. We can perform necessary repairs or recommend and install an upgraded panel to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and can handle your family's needs, helping to prevent potential fire hazards common with overheating components.

What should I do if a lightning strike or power surge damages my home's electrical system?

First, ensure safety by turning off power at the main breaker if you suspect significant damage. For Charleston-area residents dealing with surge damage, our team is available 24/7 for emergency assessments. We can inspect your entire system—including panels, wiring, and appliances—to identify and repair damaged circuits, outlets, and fixtures. We also offer solutions like whole-house surge protectors to safeguard your home against future storms, a valuable investment given our region's weather.

Do you offer installation for home electric vehicle charging stations, and what's involved?

Absolutely. We are experienced in EV charging station installation for Charleston homeowners. The process starts with our electricians evaluating your home's electrical panel capacity to ensure it can support the new charger safely. We then handle the full installation, including any necessary panel upgrades, dedicated circuit wiring, and mounting the unit. As a full-service contractor with an unlimited SC license (#M2368), we ensure the installation meets all local codes, providing you with a reliable and convenient way to charge your vehicle at home.
