Why Your El Cajon Home Needs an Electrical Safety Inspection

Whether you’re looking at buying a brand-new property in Rancho San Diego or an older property in Blossom Valley, every home will benefit from a home electrical inspection. Older homes often rely on outdated aluminum wiring and may not have the panel box capacity for newer and modern appliances. New home installations can also be built with violations of error codes that put your safety at risk.

Neglecting electrical inspections is also a fire risk. From 2019 to 2023, U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 328,590 home structure fires each year, resulting in approximately 2,600 civilian deaths, 10,770 injuries, and $8.9 billion in direct property damage annually. Electrical failures are also the third leading cause of home fires. A residential electrical inspection can prevent many of these fires.

What’s Included in Our Comprehensive Electrical Safety Inspection?

During our home electrical safety inspections, we examine every component of your electrical system to guarantee it operates safely and efficiently. We evaluate:

Your main electrical panel.
Your connections for proper sizing and faulty wiring detection.
Your switches for reliability.
Your grounding system to protect from electrical shocks.
Your breaker for the correct electrical rating, with a circuit breaker inspection.
Your wiring and connections for any signs of overheating or corrosion.
Your circuit breakers and fuses, looking for loose connections and wear and tear.

We also test all your outlets, ensuring that your GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) outlets are working correctly in areas near water, such as bathrooms and kitchens. During our thorough electrical panel inspection, we also look for frequent dimming and flickering lights, which may indicate an overloaded electrical panel.

The Comfort Bros Electrical Inspection Process

Our residential electrical safety audit begins with a consultation with the homeowner. We discuss the age of your home and any electrical issues you may be having. Our licensed electricians then conduct a thorough examination, room by room, using specialized testing equipment to measure voltage, check grounding, and identify hidden problems.

As we test and check, we document everything and create a comprehensive safety report to let you know how your electrical system is doing. We then explain any issues we find and discuss any recommended repairs — from urgent safety hazards that need immediate attention to minor improvements that can enhance your home’s electrical performance.

What Happens If Your Home Fails the Electrical Inspection?

Finding electrical issues in your home, even minor ones, is why having a certified electrician conduct a safety inspection is so important. When we identify safety issues, we will categorize them by urgency level. Findings like exposed wiring, signs of electrical arcing, or missing GFCI protection in wet areas will require immediate correction. Comfort Bros can fix most of these on the spot.

Other minor issues are still crucial for repairs, but they can be scheduled for later. Comfort Bros will always give you the best recommendation regarding the urgency of electrical safety.
