What should I do if I experience frequent power surges?
Frequent power surges can damage your appliances and indicate an underlying electrical issue. Causes may include faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, or issues with the power grid. We recommend scheduling an electrical inspection to identify and resolve the problem. Installing surge protection can also help safeguard your home or business.
How often should I schedule electrical maintenance?
Regular electrical maintenance helps prevent issues before they become major problems. We recommend:
• Homes: A professional electrical inspection every 3–5 years.
• Businesses & Industrial Facilities: Annual maintenance to ensure compliance and safety.
If you notice flickering lights, unusual burning smells, or tripping breakers, schedule a maintenance check immediately.
What are the signs of faulty or outdated wiring?
Faulty or outdated wiring can pose a serious safety hazard, increasing the risk of electrical fires and power failures. Signs you may need wiring repairs or an upgrade include:
• Frequent circuit breaker trips
• Flickering or dimming lights
• Burning smells or scorch marks on outlets
• Buzzing sounds from walls or switches
• Outlets that feel warm to the touch
• Two-prong (ungrounded) outlets instead of three-prong
If you notice any of these issues, contact Altra Electric for a professional electrical inspection and rewiring service.
