As we enter the new year, it's important to ensure our electrical systems are in the best possible condition. Making simple resolutions for your electrical system can help you stay organized and maintain a safe and efficient environment throughout the year.

Here are six New Year's resolutions for your electrical system that will help keep your home and family safe this year!

Get Organized

Take some time to organize your electronics. Clear out any clutter and make sure your cords are neat and tidy. This will help you easily locate outlets when needed and reduce fire hazards due to excess wire buildup.

Check for Faults

Have an electrician test your electrical system for loose connections and faulty wiring that could be a fire hazard. If they come across any issues, they can provide you with a repair.

Upgrade Your System If It’s Outdated

Taking the time to upgrade your electrical system will help you save energy and improve your home's safety. Consider replacing old light fixtures with more efficient LED lighting or updating outlets to ones with built-in surge protection.

Invest in Surge Protection

An electrical surge can damage your appliances and electronics, so investing in a whole-home surge protector will help protect them from sudden spikes in electricity. Most importantly, replace any surge protectors that have been damaged or are past their expiration date.

Make Sure Your GFCI Outlets Are Functioning Correctly

Keep your family safe by having an electrician test your ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in each area of your home. This device quickly shuts off power when it detects a fault in the electrical system, preventing shocks and other dangerous situations.

Schedule Regular Inspections

Electrical safety is a critical component of any home or business. To ensure that your electrical system is up-to-date and working properly, it's important to have regular inspections with an electrician. This will help you identify potential hazards and ensure that all local codes and regulations are met.

Additionally, having a professional inspect your electrical system can help prevent costly repairs down the line due to faulty wiring or outdated components. Scheduling regular inspections with an electrician is one of the best ways to keep your family safe while protecting your wallet in the long run.
