    Home Electrical Safety Inspections
    Protect Your Northern Virginia Home With Professional Electrical Safety Checks
    Your home’s electrical system is something you likely don’t think about until a problem occurs. However, regular electrical safety inspections are crucial for preventing dangerous situations, extending the life of your electrical components, and ensuring your home remains safe for you and your loved ones. At CoreTrade Electric, our certified electricians provide thorough home electrical safety inspections to identify potential hazards before they become serious problems. Whether you need a one-time check or want to sign up for our annual inspection service, we’re here to keep your home safe and functional.

    What Our Home Electrical Safety Inspections Include:

    Our comprehensive safety inspections examine all aspects of your home’s electrical system, including:

    • Complete panel inspection. We check for overloaded circuits, proper grounding, and signs of wear and tear.
    • Circuit breaker testing. Our testing process allows us to ensure proper operation and protection.
    • Ground fault protection evaluation. We check water shock protection systems to ensure safety.
    • Arc fault protection assessment. Our team inspects systems that help prevent fires by detecting arcing in wiring and fixtures.
    • Smoke detector verification. Let us test the functionality of your smoke detectors and ensure proper placement.
    • Outlet and socket testing. We can identify unsafe or improperly wired outlets and resolve them.
    • Exterior electrical inspection. We evaluate outdoor outlets, floodlights, and weather protection.
    • Grounding system analysis. Let us confirm your home is properly grounded to prevent hazards.

    When to Schedule an Electrical Safety Inspection

    We offer both one-time inspections and annual service plans to meet your needs. Consider scheduling an inspection if:

    • You’ve recently purchased a home. Know what you’re working with and address any issues early.
    • You’re planning to sell your home. Attach our detailed inspection report to show potential buyers your home’s electrical system is safe and up to code.
    • You’re planning a home addition or major appliance installation. Confirm whether your existing panel can support additional electrical load for renovations, hot tubs, or EV charging stations.
    • You’ve experienced electrical issues. Flickering lights, tripped breakers, or warm outlets are signs to schedule an inspection.
    • Your home is over 25 years old. Older electrical systems may not meet current safety codes, leading to hazards.
    • You’ve started a renovation project that was left unfinished. Had a handyman disappear mid-project? We’ll evaluate the work to see what still needs to be done.
