How We Diagnose Electrical Problems

When your electric system stops working, we don’t cut corners. Instead, we can help provide long-lasting solutions so you can trust your electrical. We follow these steps to diagnose your issue:

We’ll start by inspecting the problem area. This may be flickering lights or a discolored outlet. Though these issues seem self-explanatory, our professionals may notice something the average homeowner cannot.

We don’t want to treat your problem’s symptoms but instead identify the root of the issue. For example, if you have flickering lights, it may be caused by an outdated electrical panel that can no longer handle your electrical requirements. This approach provides long-lasting solutions for your system as a whole, instead of only treating the symptoms of a more significant problem.

If the problem is still unclear, we can use electrical testing to gain more information about the condition of your electrical components. We can safely test your system to determine the severity of your problem and its exact cause.

Once we’ve found the source of your issue, we can provide various solutions that work for your home. Douglas Electric is here for you whenever you need expert diagnosis and troubleshooting in Rancho Cordova.

Signs You Need Troubleshooting

Without knowing the signs of electrical issues, you can let problems continue to grow throughout your system. 

Here are a few signs you need our professionals to troubleshoot or diagnose issues with your home:

  • Surges: If your wiring arcs or lightning strikes, your home can experience surges that only last a second but vastly affect your electrical system by decreasing the lifespan of appliances. Troubleshoot this issue by using surge protectors where you plug in essential appliances like your refrigerator or TV.
  • Overloaded circuits: If you have an outdated home but love using today’s appliances, you may need more wattage than your current circuits can handle. This causes breakers to flip regularly. We can increase circuits and available electricity with a new electrical panel.
  • Flickering lights: If you have frayed wiring, it can cause shorts that put your home at risk for an electrical fire. Troubleshoot this issue by ensuring your lightbulb is tightened correctly. If this doesn’t solve the problem, our expert diagnosis and troubleshooting in Rancho Cordova can help find the solution.

The professionals at Douglas Electric can help troubleshoot these common issues with your electrical system. Don’t guess or ignore the problems you’re experiencing when we have years of experience to dedicate to your problem. Our owner is at every service to ensure we get the job done right.
