What Is an Electrical System Inspection?

A crucial part of every home inspection involves a close look at the electrical system. The goal is to make sure that every part of the system is in good condition and fully up to code. The job should only be done by a licensed electrician.

The certified and licensed electricians at Watts Electrical & Construction Services are experts at troubleshooting electrical problems: they will identify outdated or degraded wiring. If your home has ever had any DIY work done or work from a shady contractor, there’s a good chance something might be wrong. Watts Electrical & Construction Services will be able to recognize it and offer a fix for it. If you have a fuse panel, they will check for oversized fuses. They’ll examine your outlets to determine whether they are grounded or not.

All this and more goes into an electrical inspection. After the inspection, our technicians will meet with you to discuss the options you have. Since we are also an electrical contractor, we will be able to offer you electrical repair solutions.

Why Would I Need an Electrical Inspection?

The most obvious reason is to keep your home and your loved ones safe. Electrical systems are very dangerous; for example, a power surge from an ungrounded outlet might short circuit your electricity, but it can also cause a fire. In fact, faulty wiring and shaddy electrical work are the leading causes of electrical house fires in the US.

This means that insurance companies have an interest in home inspections. Most will require an inspection of your electrical system from a certified electrician. This allows them to create a risk assessment and determine what your premiums will be. In some cases, the results of an inspection can reduce your chance of getting insured at all—until you solve the problem.

One example of this is the fuse box. Fuse boxes can typically handle up to 60-amps of electrical current, they are often thought to be dangerous for modern homes. Many insurance companies in Woodstock will require you to upgrade to a circuit breaker that can handle a minimum of 100-amps of current—otherwise, no insurance!
