Electrical repairs and remodeling are the topic of this posting. Many homes and buildings in San Diego, CA and the surrounding areas have been around for decades. Our clients often need significant repairs or replacement of electrical devices or equipment to ensure safe and reliable operation of their electrical system. Below is a photo of an electrical panel that had damaged bussing due to improper circuit loads and age of equipment. Below that photo, is a photo of a newly installed electrical panel with arc-fault circuit breakers protecting bedroom circuits.
Worn or outdated equipment should be replaced or repaired before unsafe symptoms appear. Phase and load balancing and proper circuit loads provide safe, efficient operation of equipment. Symptoms like a buzzing or fizzing sound at your electrical panel or a device location indicate the need for de-energizing the associated circuit or equipment, and immediate replacement or repair of the equipment by a licensed electrical contractor. Flickering lights, intermittent power loss or tripping circuit breakers are also symptoms of deeper electrical issues that require immediate attention. If you own an older home or building and can't remember the last time you had a safety consultation for your electrical system, contact Prism Electric for an on site consultation and safety evaluation.
The progress of technology in our industry provides many opportunities for our clients to enhance the safety of existing wiring and equipment, and enhance economic value of the system output through remodeling. Lighting fixture and control upgrades can not only enhance safety, but also provide immediate energy savings and environmental kindness. Modern circuit breakers offer a variety of protection types and new devices can replace worn outdated plugs and switches also enhancing safety and efficiency. Many other options are available to our clients to create a safer more economical electrical system.
Feel free to contact me directly for an on site consultation.
