What does a Residential Electrician Specializes in? Why General Wiring Checks Matter for Your Safety?

/in /by

At Wicks Electric, we specialize in residential electrical safety inspections in Vancouver, and one of the most important services we provide is a General Wiring Check as part of our 20-Point Electrical Safety Inspection.

Why General Wiring Checks Matter in Residential Homes

Regardless of titles — residential, commercial, or industrial — wiring safety inside a home requires focused expertise.

During our General Wiring Check, we inspect:

✅ Cable Support & Strapping

Are cables properly secured and up to code?

✅ Junction Box Entries

Are wires clamped and terminated correctly?

✅ Overall Wiring Condition

We look for:

  • Overheating

  • Frayed insulation

  • Amateur DIY repairs

  • Aluminum wiring concerns

  • Outdated installations

Many homes “seem” fine — until hidden wiring problems cause:

  • Fire hazards

  • Repeated breaker trips

  • Overloaded circuits

  • Appliance damage

  • Insurance complications

Think of it as preventative maintenance for your electrical system.
