What’s Included in a Home Electrical Safety Check

Like any other system in your house, the electrical system requires regular maintenance and upkeep. But because the majority of your system isn’t regularly visible, it’s easy to overlook. Fortunately, a licensed electrician can perform a home electrical safety check. You’ll get increased efficiency and reduce your risk of an electrical fire. Here’s what’s included.

Inspect Your Electrical Panel and Wiring

An electrician fully inspects your electrical panel for torque and makes sure everything is properly grounded and there are no compromised parts that create a hazard. Ground-fault circuit interrupters or GFCIs are tested, too. Your GFCI is a fast-acting circuit breaker designed to shut off electric power in the event of a ground-fault within as little as 1/40 of a second. The polarity of the wires in your home is checked, too, for efficiency and safety.

Clean and Inspect Heaters and Fans

If your home has a wall heater, an electrician cleans the grills and assesses the heater’s function. Exhaust fans are also looked at. Grills are cleaned and inspected for damage, too. Because their performance may decline so slowly, you may not even realize your heater or exhaust fans are running at reduced capacity without an expert looking at them.

Assess Whole House Protection

A smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector are the best ways to prevent an unnecessary tragedy in your home, and an electrician tests both of these when carrying out a safety check. You can also expect your attic and crawl space to be inspected for proper wiring and closed junction boxes to minimize shorts or accidental electrocution.

I love Joe and his crew!! They are truly genuine down to earth people who strive to get the job done in a timely professional manner and did not try to upsell me on completely irrelevant items. Their communication skills exceed any other companies I've spoken with while I was obtaining bids to replace my electrical panel and other minor upgrades around my home. Joe was one of the only electricians who brought up a surge protector after he noticed all the new HVAC equipment I recently had installed in my home. I am truly thankful for that suggestion as it will save me a lot of money in the long run. Treg was the electrician who did most of our work onsite. He was very friendly, easy to talk to and gave me advice on things to look out for in the future. Their pricing is more than fair for the quality of workmanship they offer! I have not been this impressed with a trade like this in a very long time. Will refer them to all of my friends, family and acquaintances! Thanks Electrical Outfitters NW!

As a contractor I’ve struggled to find an electrician that I like working with, these guys are very professional, offer creative solutions, and provide a well executed final product. Definitely going to use them on my future projects!
