Frisco, TX Electrical Safety Inspection

Benefits of Inspections

Older homes operate on outdated wiring and electrical code standards. With an electrical inspection, you’ll be able to find out if your wiring is outdated, hazardous or degraded and fix these issues before they cause major problems. In today’s society of advanced appliances and devices, having an updated electrical panel and dedicated circuits keeps your home running safely and efficiently.

During an electrical inspection, our electricians will check for:

• Labeled electrical panel breakers and correct amps
• Hazardous areas that could shock someone or start a fire
• Correct light bulb wattage
• Properly installed and functioning ceiling fans
• Updated GFCI outlets in the kitchen and bathroom
• Operating smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
• Updated outlets with ground wires
• Properly installed and functioning outdoor lighting and security systems
• Up-to-date electrical wiring throughout the home
• Exposed wiring
• Loose power connections

The largest cause of property damage is electrical problems, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Knowing where your house stands with electrical wiring can prevent property damage and keep you safe. Even if you’re adding a new appliance to your home, it’s best to have an electrical inspection conducted.

If the new appliance overloads your system, you could experience frequent power surges and tripped breakers, which can ruin your appliance and others on the same circuit. Our electricians may recommend a dedicated circuit for your new appliance, an entire electrical panel upgrade to meet amp requirements or rewiring services to keep your home compatible with new technology.
