Importance Of Residential Electrical Safety Inspections

Electrical systems, like any other system in a home or building, ages over time. All electrical wiring and electrical fixtures deteriorate with use and age. Despite this, a lot of homeowners and property managers tend to overlook the condition of their electrical wiring. Because of this, electrical safety inspections are essential. With electrical problems being the most common cause of residential fires, having an electrical safety inspection performed when buying a new home or selling a home is a must. Having an electrical wiring inspection performed is one of the most important things a homeowner can do to keep their place safe from electrical hazards and protected from other electrical problems. We encourage homeowners not to risk the lives of their loved ones, in addition to their property being damaged because of electrical fires. Electrical safety should be a top priority in your home or business.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my light switch hot to the touch?

When you reach for your light switch to turn it off, you have a problem only to find that it is hot to the touch. This is not a normal event, and it indicates that there are serious issues hiding behind your walls. If you don’t get help immediately, you could face a serious electrical fire in your home.

Why should I get an electrical code update?

Whether you own a newer home or building or one that’s older — it’s always wise to hire a licensed electrician every three to five years to conduct an electrical safety inspection. Doing so ensures your home or building remains up to code to keep the place, the belongings, and the occupants safe. Experts say it’s essential everyone follows the National Electrical Code as well as local and state codes. NEC codes are updated once every three years. As the leading electrical code standard in the U.S., the NEC establishes the basics of electrical safety in homes and buildings throughout the U.S. Local jurisdictions usually adopt the importance of this code. Compliance with the NEC code, as such, makes it easier to guarantee that electrical installation work is done without leaving safety hazards.

What do I do if my electrical panel is hot?

If you can safely turn the power off, do so and give us a call immediately. On the other hand, you might need an upgrade or some maintenance. Either way, this is a job for professionals like MK Electric.

What is a "short circuit?'

A short circuit (often called a “short”) occurs when the wire carrying the electrical current (referred to as the “hot wire” and usually black) has contact with the grounded conductor (the “neutral,” generally white) or the equipment ground (the “bare copper,” typically green). When a short happens, it generates an overabundance of heat. If left unchecked, it can create sparks resulting in an electrical fire. If a short, your electrical panel will cut the power to the circuit – call us right away.
