Electrical Grounding in Sarasota

Stay Safe with Help from Mister Sparky® of Sarasota

The electrical grounding system is vital to providing power to your Florida home.

What Exactly Is Electrical Grounding?

Grounding prevents appliances in your home from becoming charged due to lightening strikes or other power surges. It directs extra charge away from appliances like your refrigerator by using wiring. Those wires are then led outside and planted into the ground to discharge. Your appliances are literally being connected to the ground outside.

There are several ways to install grounding systems, depending on your home. Wiring in the home, known as branch circuits, should have its own ground located in the cable or conduit.

How Old is Your Home?

Depending on when your home was built, it may or may not have a ground wire. The lack of a grounding wire may have met the minimum safety standards when your home was built, but it may not meet today’s current safety standards.

For this reason, it is always a good idea to have a complete electrical inspection if your home is over 30 years old. You should always consult a licensed Sarasota electrician to verify if your grounding system is current to today’s minimum safety standards.

Benefits of Electrical Grounding

Grounding can save your life, and it can also be beneficial for your appliances. It saves equipment from damage that would lessen its efficiency. This can benefit your:

TVs
Microwave Oven
Computers
Lights
Refrigerator
Other Electrical Devices

Proper electrical grounding can even enhance surge protection, so it’s a really good multi-purpose safety measure.

I give Matt in sales and Dan the electrician 5 stars. They were very professional and so nice. Matt was very informative on the products I needed for my house. Dan the electrician did an awesome job installing the lights, surge protectors and generator plug. He was so kind to go step by step when hooking up the generator to the house. I would definitely recommend this company

Ethan and his coworker Hunter from Mr. Sparky are excellent! They did a wonderful job installing our 300-pound chandelier. From putting up the scaffolding till the conclusion of chandelier installation, everything was done professionally. As highly satisfied customers, we recommend them without any reservation! You will be glad that you have chosen them.

I contacted Mister Sparky to do some electrical work by adding some additional electrical outlets in my three car garage. Today their technician, Andrew Miller, showed up to perform the services. Andrew was very polite, professional, and congenial as he performed his work in running new electrical lines to a couple of places in my garage. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. I am totally pleased with the work that was performed by Andrew Miller, And this is Not the first time that we have had Mr. Sparky Electrician’s out to our house as we have done a number of updating projects since we purchased a home in 2003. I openly recommend the Mr. Sparky Electrician’s company to anyone in need of professional electrical work performed in their home or business.
