''Inspected non-functional lighting in a shed fed by an existing service that supplies power to a small building, the shed, and a well. Upon arrival, lighting was not operational, although the breaker was not tripped. Opened the panel and cycled the lighting breaker, revealing a loose, arcing neutral connection. Panel was found to be improperly fed with 10/2 Romex, lacking an equipment ground and using a non-insulated neutral, which is not compliant with current code requirements. Tightened the neutral connection, restoring functionality to the lighting system. Feeder and service configuration present significant code and safety concerns, including the absence of proper grounding and insulation. Lighting restored to previous working condition.

Homeowners rely on all of the outlets and switches in their home to be in proper working order. Something that you may not know is that these switches and outlets can be extremely powerful and can be a potential danger or hazard. That’s why Electrical Safety Check is necessary to ensure your properties safety.
With the passage of time, plugs and switches can become loose and become potential dangers. Another red flag is when your switch or your plug is hot or warm. Our trusted licensed electricians must be called when you see signs of growing problems such as discoloration.
Many older homes have electrical systems that are outdated and don’t meet current safety standards. Check your panel. If they’re still using fuses then you need to stop reading and start scheduling for a panel upgrade estimate now. Panels that are 25 years old and over need to be replaced and upgraded, call now to schedule an estimate.
The modern lifestyle requires even more electricity from the power grid than it ever has. High-power appliances, huge televisions, and large utilities found in homes all require more power than older systems can provide safely. Usually, electrical systems aren’t even upgraded unless there’s something wrong.
Indicators that you need an upgraded panel:
The first thing we’ll do is send out one of our licensed electricians to evaluate your panel. He’ll take the time to show you how much power you’re consuming and help you see whether or not you need a new panel. He’s going to only provide enhancement choices. Of course, just like with any other service we offer, we won’t get started until you have approved our estimate.
Have you taken steps to protect yourself from the damage caused by power surges and lightning strikes? Most people don’t know this but the standard home insurance policy doesn’t cover the damage caused by power surges. As reported by The National Fire Protection Association, the average expenditure for a claim increased by 122% within 2004 and 2013, resulting in an average of $5,869. These alone are more than enough reasons to have surge protection installed in your home by our expert team.
Our licensed electricians are available to schedule an inspection of your electrical system. They will go through everything and will prepare a very comprehensive list of things you can to do help optimize your home’s electrical system, as well as provide for proper protection. It only takes a few keystrokes, a couple of mouse clicks or a phone call to schedule this important assessment. Bear in mind that it takes even less time than that for a power surge to cause costly damage to your home and your electrical devices and appliances.
