Outlets and switches make sure power moves precisely and safely throughout your home or business. GFCIs are essential because they drastically reduce the chances of electrocution in wet environments. When switches and outlets are installed properly, they ensure the continued safety and efficiency of your property’s electrical system. 

At Echo Electrical Services, our licensed electricians specialize in installing and repairing outlets, GFCIs, and switches. Our team guarantees expert quality residential and commercial electrical services across Fort Worth and Arlington, Texas. 

Electrical Outlet Installation & Replacement

Whether you have a brand new home or a long-established business, when you plug in appliances, you expect them to work. Faulty or inconsistent outlets can be frustrating and disrupt your daily routines. If you notice your outlets aren’t getting enough power, malfunctioning, or think you need a new kind of outlet, you should address it as soon as possible.

Whether you’re looking to remodel your home or bring your business electrical power up to speed, our team ensures all our electrical outlet services are up to code and as efficient as possible. 

GFCI Outlet Installation & Safety Solutions

GFCIs protect you from receiving electrical shocks from faulty electrical devices. If there’s the slightest difference in current, it quickly cuts off the power supply. They are typically installed around areas exposed to water, like outdoors, bathrooms, or kitchens. GFCIS are required by National Electrical Code guidelines because water increases the chances of an accidental shock.

Malfunctioning or overloaded outlets also put your home at risk of electrical fires. The U.S. Fire Administration estimates that over 23,000 residential fires a year are caused by electrical malfunctions. This is why most outlet safety solutions are centered around preventing outlet overload. 

At Echo Electrical Services, our electricians have years of experience installing GFCI outlets, repairing circuit breakers/fuse boxes, and helping customers understand how to keep their homes safe from electrical fires. Our team prioritizes assessing your current electrical system, suggesting improvements, and performing installations safely, all according to code.

Residential GFCI Protection & Compliance

Since their invention, GFCIs have helped limit the chance of electrocution, fires, and personal harm in homes across the nation. The National Electrical Code requires them in any place that is near water or potential moisture. That means to remain within national electrical compliance, GFCIs must be installed in places like kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, garages, and any outdoor spaces.

It’s important to note that every state and even city has its own local codes that must also be followed and kept up with. Even the NEC makes changes yearly to adjust to new market information or products. The best way to ensure all your electrical work is free of any violations is to work with licensed professional electricians. They stay up-to-date with any new technologies or codes you may need to know about and can easily spot where compliance has been broken. 

Troubleshooting Outlet and Switch Issues

Without the proper tools and expertise, it can be difficult to determine what exactly is causing your outlet or switch to malfunction. Although the best way to get a true diagnosis is to contact a licensed electrician, there are things you can do yourself to gauge what’s causing your issues. If you notice your outlets lack power, and want to find out the cause, start by: 

Identifying problems with your electrical switches can be trickier, but you want to check your bulbs first before assuming there’s an issue with the switch.
