Questions about wiring safety checks

When scheduling Electrical Safety Inspection, can an inspection find wiring problems in an older home?

Yes, GMB Electric can find visible wiring problems, including loose connections, during an inspection. The scope depends on what we can safely access and test.

Hidden wiring may need further diagnosis. Tell us about past repairs and any symptoms you've noticed, and we'll discuss what the inspection can address.

For Electrical Safety Inspection, what should I tell you about a partial power outage?

The affected rooms and outlets help us understand a partial power outage. Tell us whether lights are out and whether a breaker has tripped.

We'll use those details to discuss the inspection and diagnosis. Avoid opening the panel or handling exposed wiring while you wait.

At the outset of the job, should I replace a tripped breaker myself from the first walkthrough onward?

No, leave breaker replacement to us. A breaker that trips repeatedly needs diagnosis before a repair is chosen.

Tell us which circuit is affected and what was running when the breaker tripped. We'll assess the concern and discuss whether the breaker or another part of the circuit needs attention.

Which details should I confirm before agreeing to an inspection?

The inspection scope and access arrangements are worth confirming before work starts.

  • Ask which areas and electrical parts we plan to check.
  • Discuss any access limits or symptoms.
  • Confirm the estimate and how we'll discuss further work.

These details help you understand what the visit covers.

When might a panel upgrade enter the discussion?

A panel upgrade may be worth discussing if the inspection reveals a panel concern or your electrical needs have changed.

We also provide panel upgrades, but an inspection doesn't automatically mean you need one. We'll explain the finding and discuss the work that fits your property.

Why do you need access to the electrical panel?

Panel access lets us assess equipment connected to your electrical circuits. It also helps us investigate concerns such as repeated breaker trips.

Clear the area around the panel before the visit if you can do so safely. Don't remove its cover or touch its internal parts.
