Electrical system inspection helps identify and fix fire hazards while also allowing the residents to save money and energy. Top Home Inspection team will ensure that your electrical system meets the electrical code requirement as well as insurance risk assessment inspection. You can consider electrical system inspections if you want to buy a home or if your home is more than 40 years old. If you are adding more appliances or installing a new electrical system, you also want to seek inspectors to assess your electrical system.
In times of renovations, you want the electrical system to remain in proper shape. If you suspect the house does not live up to code, or you have electrical problems, you would better call in electrical inspectors. An inspection can be essential when you want to test the safety of your electrical devices including the dishwashing machine, laundry machine, and the ovens.
Our inspectors check for things such as blackened outlets that indicate risks of sparks and fires. Burn marks appearing on walls, ceiling, and around outlets give hints to an overloaded, loose, or improperly installed electrical sockets and wiring. If you have outlets that can’t allow you to plug in your electronic devices, it can tell something about your electrical system. If you have issues with the little things like sockets and outlets, what about the bigger things like the circuit breakers, electrical panels, and the wiring cables running up in the attic space?
Our inspectors measure the electricity that passes through the wiring circuit to help tell if there is bad wiring, overloading, or electricity taking a different path. The technicians will also examine if there are loose light fixtures, lights flickering, burning plastic or rubber smell, ceiling fans making loud mechanical noises, and switches not operating correctly. They also assess the exterior electrical system including outdoor outlets to see if they have protective covers. For the outlets located close to water sources, the electrical technicians check whether there are GFCI installed to enhance the safety of the electrical system.
A safe and efficient running electrical system prevents fire hazards, risks of electrocution, and reduces energy consumption. If the electrical system is outdated, Top Home Inspection technicians will inform you so that you can take appropriate measures to upgrade it.
