Ward Electric - Williston's Qualified Electricians

Yes, absolutely. A comprehensive electrical inspection from Ward Electric can identify vulnerabilities in your home's wiring, grounding system, and panel that make it susceptible to power surges. Common issues in Williston, like aging infrastructure or overloaded circuits, can be spotted. We'll recommend solutions like whole-house surge protectors or wiring upgrades to safeguard your valuable appliances.

Transfer switch issues are common here, often due to corrosion from weather extremes, improper installation, or simple wear and tear. During an electrical inspection, our Williston electricians test the transfer switch's operation, check all connections, and ensure it's correctly integrated with your home's electrical panel. We can repair or replace faulty switches to ensure your backup power kicks in reliably when you need it most.

For older Williston homes, our inspection is particularly thorough. We check for outdated wiring like knob-and-tube or aluminum, insufficient amperage for modern appliance loads, and the condition of the main service panel. We also assess outdoor connections and grounding—critical for our local climate. The goal is to create a safety report and a prioritized plan to modernize your electrical system, addressing both immediate hazards and the common local issues of surges and generator connectivity.
