Electrical Safety Inspections for San Jose & Santa Clara County Homes

Most electrical problems don’t start with sparks or outages.
They develop quietly as homes age and electrical demand increases.

A professional electrical safety inspection helps homeowners understand the condition of their wiring, panel, and connections — so issues can be addressed before they turn into bigger problems.

At Dollens Electric, our inspections are designed to provide clear information, not pressure.

Who Benefits From an Electrical Safety Inspection

Electrical safety inspections are especially helpful if your home:

  • Was built more than 25–30 years ago

  • Has never had a full electrical evaluation

  • Is adding new electrical loads (EV charger, HVAC, remodel)

  • Has experienced flickering lights, warm outlets, or frequent breaker trips

  • Has had electrical work done over many years by different contractors

If you’re unsure where to start, an inspection is often the best first step.

What Happens During an Electrical Safety Inspection

Our inspections are practical and homeowner-focused. We take the time to understand how your home is wired and how it’s being used today.

A typical inspection may include:

  • Evaluating the main electrical panel and any subpanels

  • Checking accessible wiring, junction boxes, and connections

  • Identifying signs of overheating, wear, or outdated materials

  • Reviewing grounding and bonding where accessible

  • Discussing how current electrical demand compares to system capacity

We explain what we see, what matters, and what doesn’t — in plain language.
