Trying to sell your house comes with a lot of tasks, from filling in holes in the wall to getting it ready for a showing. But one thing that can sometimes go unnoticed is to make sure that the electrical wiring inside the walls is in good shape. An electrician is required to do an actual electric inspection; this is also a great time for a seller to have them perform specific tasks such as testing lights, fitting faceplates on switches and outlets, and changing light fixtures.
Get an electrical inspection done before you place your home on the market so that you will not be caught by surprise when the buyer’s inspector report comes back with issues.
Overloaded Circuits
Overloading a circuit allows more current than the circuit can safely manage to pass through its electrical wires. Increasing load on the circuits or the age of the electrical wires can lead to this. A fire might break out if the wiring becomes overloaded and the insulation melts due to the heat. An electrician will inspect your electrical system for overloaded circuits and make any required changes to help reduce risks for your safety.
