Expert Electrical Company in New Braunfels, TX 78132 - Zunker Electric

Our comprehensive electrical inspection includes a detailed evaluation of your home's grounding system. We check for outdated wiring, insufficient grounding rods, and improper connections to your water pipe or other electrodes—common issues in older New Braunfels homes. Proper grounding is essential for safety, as it directs dangerous electrical surges safely into the earth, protecting your family and electronics. We'll provide a clear report and recommendations to bring your system up to current National Electrical Code standards.

In New Braunfels, where sudden storms can cause outages, a generator is a great backup. However, a transfer switch must be installed correctly to prevent 'backfeed,' which can electrocute utility workers and damage your home's electrical system. Our inspection ensures your main panel can safely accommodate the switch, verifies correct wire sizing, and confirms the overall system integrity for a safe, code-compliant installation that protects everyone.

We perform a dedicated inspection of existing generator setups, focusing on common local failure points. We verify the transfer switch is properly rated and mechanically switches all necessary circuits. We check for corrosion on connections (a concern in our climate), ensure the generator's location meets clearance and exhaust safety codes, and test the automatic start function. This proactive check helps New Braunfels homeowners avoid costly failures when they need backup power the most.
