How does a CurrentSAFE® Contractor find electrical hazards in a home?

A certified and experienced Electrician will use advanced tools and technology that check behind the walls without cutting holes or using any other destructive inspection methods. These revolutionary methods will diagnose dangerous electrical problems in your home before they result in shock or fire hazards.

A few of our proven testing devices include:

Infrared Thermographic Imager
This tool will identify any 'hot-spots' on the electrical equipment, which will eventually result in hazard or failure.  We utilize only trained ASNT Level 1 CurrentSAFE® Certified Thermographers for electrical fire and hazard detection. 

Ultrasonic Sound Detector
We use this tool to listen for hidden tracking and arcing problems.  Our trained electricians hear shorting BEFORE it becomes a fire.  Used around lights, switches, dimmers, outlets and other accessible apparatus.

Circuit Analyzer
We plug this tool into every accessible outlet in the home.  The circuit analyzer runs a resistive test on the wires and outlets downstream, through all other outlets and through the circuit breaker. This will identify loose connections, undersized wires and other integrity issues that exist behind the walls.

Ground Resistance Tester
We check the ground system outside at the main service.  This tool tells us in milliamps if there is shorting to ground BEFORE it becomes a hazard.  It also tells us the integrity of the ground system regarding lightning strikes and other potential hazards.

True RMS Voltage & Current Meters
We plug this in at the beginning of the testing service to monitor and record power through the day – as we perform our service.  This identifies voltage issues (sags or surges) coming from the utility.  Power quality issues require a trained electrician to identify and provide a corrective action.

Circuit Tracer
This is the ultimate "Spy Tool" for tracing wires inside your walls.  We use this to locate shorting wires without using destructive methods like cutting holes in your walls.  We can identify breakers and fuses to easily locate circuit paths.  We can even find a broken or shorting wire up to 3' feet deep in the ground!
