Electrical Safety Secrets: What’s Lurking in Your Walls? Local Living Las Vegas

Published On: November 26th, 2024

When it comes to home safety, we often think about visible hazards like uneven walkways or loose roof tiles. But some of the most dangerous threats are hidden within your walls: your electrical system. Aging wiring, outdated panels, or improperly maintained outlets can put your home and family at risk. That’s where Electricode’s Home Electrical Safety Evaluations come in.

Recently, Harrison Fakas, owner of Electricode, joined Courtney Perna on Local Living to discuss the importance of electrical safety and how homeowners can protect their families from hidden dangers. As highlighted during the segment, electrical systems often go unnoticed until it’s too late—but regular maintenance can help prevent major issues before they arise.

Why Electrical Safety Evaluations Are Essential

Electrical systems are the backbone of your home, powering everything from appliances to lighting. But over time, wear and tear can create hidden risks. Loose connections, outdated wiring, or a lack of grounding can lead to serious issues, including flickering lights, frequently tripped breakers, electrical shocks, and fire hazards. Even if your home was compliant when it was built, today’s codes and safety standards may reveal vulnerabilities you didn’t know existed. That’s why regular evaluations are crucial, especially for homes over 25 years old.

What to Expect During an Electrical Safety Evaluation

At Electricode, our licensed professionals thoroughly inspect your home’s electrical system to ensure safety and efficiency. Here’s what you can expect during a typical evaluation:

  • Electrical Panel Inspection – We check for loose connections, corrosion, and signs of overheating.
  • Grounding and Surge Protection – Ensure your home is properly grounded from power surges.
  • Outlet and Switch Testing – Identifying wear, damage, or improper installation.
  • Safety Systems Review – Examining smoke detectors, GFCI outlets, and circuit breakers.
  • Modern Tech Readiness – Assessing infrastructure for new technology like EV chargers and energy-efficient appliances.

The process typically takes 45–90 minutes, depending on the size of your home. Harrison emphasized on Local Living that a proactive approach is key to keeping your home safe and avoiding costly surprises.
