Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do to prepare my home for electrical work?

Ensure clear access to electrical panels, outlets, and affected areas. Move furniture and secure pets to allow the electrician to work safely and efficiently. Inform the electrician about any known issues before the service begins.

Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel when installing new appliances?

Large appliances, such as HVAC systems or electric stoves, often require dedicated circuits and higher capacity panels. A professional assessment can determine whether your existing panel can handle the increased load safely.

How can I tell if my home's wiring needs to be replaced?

Signs of outdated or faulty wiring include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, discolored outlets, and burning smells near electrical fixtures. Homes older than 30 years often require a wiring inspection to ensure safety.

Is my home required to have GFCI outlets in certain areas?

Yes, GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets are required in moisture-prone areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces. They prevent electrical shock by cutting power when detecting imbalances in the circuit.

Can my home support additional lighting or new circuits?

An electrician can assess your panel's capacity and circuit availability to determine if your home can safely support new lighting installations or additional circuits without risking overload.
