Comprehensive Assessments to Keep You Powered and Protected
Regular inspections can let you identify hazards such as old wiring or overloaded circuits well before they cause trouble. This will help in preventing the property from damage and, hence, fire hazards, and even save on your power consumption due to inefficiency. At Brightlite Electrical Services, we offer detailed Electrical Safety Inspections to ensure your home or business is up to code and will protect your investment from potential electrical hazards.

What Is an Electrical Safety Inspection?

An Electrical Safety Inspection is a detailed and important overview of your electrical system at your premises. It is conducted by our own certified electricians to check and make sure each component complies with tight safety requirements. We carefully check the wirings, systems, and electrical panels, following national safety codes, so your system would remain intact and you would be at peace.

When Should You Schedule an Inspection?

  • Home Purchases: Before you buy a new property, let us give you the full picture of its electrical integrity.
  • Home Age: A 40-year-old house or older can be inspected for out-of-date wiring or other systems not up to current safety codes.
  • Post Renovation: A safety inspection should be conducted after any major home remodeling to confirm that the most recent safety codes are followed by all new and modified electrical work.
  • Adding Appliances: Get a professional electrician who is able to examine if your electrical system is capable of handling an additional load coming from new appliances.
  • Signs of Trouble: Don’t let a problem boil over; flickering lights, frequent trips of breakers, and any electrical shocks are all reasons to schedule an inspection immediately.

What Do We Examine?

Our inspection checklist covers, but is not limited to:
  • Functionality of switches and outlets
  • Fixture operations

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How often should I get an electrical safety inspection?
An electrical safety inspection should be carried out every 10 years, if the home has recently been purchased, or if the home is over 40 years old. If new appliances are installed or after major renovations.
What does an electrical safety inspection involve?
This will include inspection of the power supply, safety switches, lighting, power outlets, wires, and inspection of the electrical panels. Inspection accounts for wear and tear and ensures your property complies with present safety standards and that the electrical work there is both safe and effective.
Can I conduct an electrical safety inspection myself?
It is not recommended to conduct an electrical safety inspection yourself unless you are a qualified electrician. That is to say, complete and safe inspections of electrical safety should be conducted by a technically qualified electrician who possesses the skill and equipment for inspection.
What are the signs that I might need an urgent electrical safety inspection?
Some of the signs include, but are not limited to, frequent tripping of circuit breakers, getting shocks from electrical appliances, flickering lights, a burning smell, or anything that people may find out as a change in the performance of the electrical system.
What will I receive after an inspection?
We provide a comprehensive report that will state the condition of your electrical system, any hazards or defects noticed, and the recommendations for correction or upgrade.
Will the inspection disrupt my daily activities?
The check is designed to be as non-intrusive as possible. That said, there may be a brief power interruption while electricians carry out a safe systems check.
How long does an electrical safety inspection take?
The period of the whole process, of course, will depend on the area of the property and how its electrical systems are complex. On average, it could take from one hour to several hours to complete the whole thorough inspection.
How much does an electrical safety inspection cost?
Pricing varies by location, house size, and scope of inspection. Please call Brightlite Electrical Services to have them help you determine what is the most appropriate in your case.
Is there any preparation I need to do before an inspection?
It’s helpful to ensure access to all electrical panels and outlets is clear and to have a list of any issues or concerns you’ve noticed with your electrical system.
