Q&A
How can an electrical inspection protect my Wilmington home from lightning surge damage?
A comprehensive electrical inspection by Waller Electric Service includes checking your home's surge protection, grounding system, and the condition of your wiring and panels. After a storm, surges can weaken these components, leading to future failures. We identify any damage or vulnerabilities, such as compromised breakers or outdated panels, and recommend upgrades like whole-house surge protectors to safeguard your expensive electronics and appliances common in coastal homes.
My breaker keeps tripping. Can an inspection tell if my panel is overloaded?
Absolutely. Frequent tripping is a classic sign of an overloaded panel, especially in older Wilmington homes not designed for today's high electrical demand. Our inspection measures the load on your circuits, assesses your panel's capacity, and examines the wiring for safety. We'll provide a clear explanation and solutions, which may include panel upgrades, adding dedicated circuits, or rewiring to safely handle your home's power needs and prevent fire hazards.
What specific things do you check in a Wilmington home electrical inspection?
Our Wilmington-focused inspection is thorough. We check the main service panel and breakers for corrosion (common in our humid climate), test GFCIs in kitchens and bathrooms, verify proper grounding and bonding, inspect wiring for rodent damage or deterioration, and assess outdoor fixtures and connections for storm resilience. We specifically look for signs of past surge damage and evaluate if your system can handle local demands, providing a detailed report with prioritized, actionable recommendations.
