Frequently Asked Questions
What does an electrical system inspection include?
An inspection covers panels, wiring, outlets, grounding, circuit breakers, and safety devices. Inspectors check for overloaded circuits, damaged wiring, and compliance with the Ontario Electrical Safety Code.
How should I prepare for an electrical system inspection?
Provide clear access to electrical panels, outlets, and equipment rooms. Remove clutter or obstacles blocking breaker boxes or wiring so the inspector can perform a full evaluation efficiently and safely.
When should electrical system inspections be scheduled?
For homes, inspections are recommended every 5–10 years or after major renovations. Commercial and industrial systems may require inspections every 3–5 years to ensure safety and compliance.
