Electrical Home Inspection MN: 72-Point Safety Audit
Loose connections create heat before they create fire. Standard inspections miss this. We scan your main panel, outlets, and switches with FLIR Infrared Cameras to detect dangerous "hot spots" invisible to the naked eye. We see the problem before it fails.
3. The 72-Point Audit
Torque & Tighten. We don't just look at your breaker box; we maintain it. We check every connection for proper torque (tightness), look for corrosion on the bus bar, and verify your grounding system is actually connected to the earth.
Polarity & Tension. We test a sample of outlets in every room. We check for "Reverse Polarity" (shock hazard), "Open Grounds," and loose contact tension (plugs falling out), which causes arcing behind the wall.
Smoke & Carbon Monoxide. Are your detectors expired? (They expire every 10 years). We check the dates, test the battery backup, and verify inter-connectivity so that when one beeps, they all beep.
