The electrical system can make or break an older home purchase.

Before buying an older home, look for:

✔️ Panel age
✔️ Breaker space
✔️ Two-prong outlets
✔️ Flickering lights
✔️ DIY wiring
✔️ Old or damaged wiring
✔️Outdoor outlet protection
✔️ EV charger readiness
✔️Generator readiness
✔️ Signs of past electrical repairs

PowerMaster Tip: A general home inspection is helpful, but electrical concerns deserve an electrician’s eyes.

Electrical work is not the place to hire based on price alone. Before hiring, homeowners should verify licensing, ask about permits, confirm experience with the specific job, and make sure the contractor is comfortable explaining the work clearly.

PowerMaster Tip: A professional electrician should never make you feel silly for asking safety questions.

Should I unplug electronics during a storm? ⛈️
Surge strips help, but they are not the whole plan.

Unplugging sensitive electronics during a severe storm can help protect them, but it is not always practical. That is why many homeowners add whole-home surge protection at the panel for a broader layer of defense.

💡PowerMaster Tip: Use layered protection: whole-home surge protection plus quality point-of-use protection for sensitive electronics.

What should I check before storm season?
Storm prep is not just batteries and bottled water.

Before the next big storm, check your electrical readiness:
✔️ Generator plan
✔️ Transfer switch setup
✔️Whole-home surge protection
✔️Working GFCI outlets
✔️Outdoor outlet covers
✔️Panel condition
✔️Flashlights and charged devices
✔️Carbon monoxide detectors

💡PowerMaster Tip: The best time to prepare is before the outage.

Why did my power surge after an outage?
________________________________________
Power coming back on can be rough on your home’s electronics.

When power returns after an outage, voltage changes and electrical surges can stress sensitive electronics and appliances. That includes HVAC equipment, garage door openers, refrigerators, computers, TVs, and smart devices.

PowerMaster Tip: If your home has expensive electronics and modern appliances, surge protection is worth discussing.

Ask about whole-home surge protection before the next outage.

What is a transfer switch?
This is the piece that makes generator power safer.

A transfer switch helps safely separate utility power from generator power. Without the right setup, a generator can create dangerous backfeed that may damage equipment or put utility workers at risk.

PowerMaster Tip: Never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet to power your home. That is not a shortcut. It is dangerous.

Generator safety starts before the storm.
