Full Home Electrical Safety Inspection
Service Details
What Is a Home Electrical Safety Inspection?
A professional home electrical safety inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of your home’s entire electrical system — performed by a licensed electrician — to identify hazards, code violations, and potential failure points before they become dangerous or costly.
Whether you’re buying or selling a home, living in an older house, or simply want peace of mind, a residential electrical inspection is one of the smartest investments a homeowner can make.
What’s Included in Our Full Home Electrical Inspection
Our certified electricians conduct a thorough, top-to-bottom review of your electrical system, including:
- Electrical Panel & Service Entrance: We inspect your main breaker panel, subpanels, and service entrance for signs of overloading, double-tapping, corrosion, and outdated or recalled brands (such as Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels) — some of the leading causes of home electrical fires.
- Wiring & Circuits: We check for outdated aluminum wiring, ungrounded circuits, improper splicing, and exposed or damaged wiring throughout your home — in walls, attics, crawl spaces, and garages.
- Outlets, Switches & Fixtures: Every accessible outlet and switch is tested for proper grounding, polarity, and function. We identify missing or malfunctioning GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas — required by the National Electrical Code (NEC) for shock prevention.
- AFCI Protection: Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs) protect against dangerous electrical arcs that cause fires. We verify proper installation per current electrical code compliance standards.
- Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detectors: We evaluate placement, operability, and interconnection of detectors to ensure your home meets current life safety requirements.
- Grounding & Bonding: Proper grounding protects your home and appliances from surges and faults. We verify your grounding system is intact and up to standard.
- Exterior & Service Equipment: We inspect weatherheads, meter bases, exterior outlets, and any outdoor electrical equipment for weatherproofing and safety compliance.
