Home Inspector - Home Inspection Monthly Review

Home inspection reviews based upon the results of home inspections conducted by InspectAmerica Engineering, PC, a highly recommended home inspection company.

Damaged Electrical Wiring Home Inspection

Inspection of the electrical system is an important part of the home inspection process. If the home is old, there could be deteriorated unsafe electrical wiring.

The above photo taken during a home inspection shows electrical wiring in the electrical service panel that has deteriorated outdated unsafe insulation on the electrical wiring; the home inspector should remove the cover on the electrical service panel to inspect the wiring.

This is an important reason why home buyers should retain the services of a licensed Professional Engineer to conduct their home inspection rather than a non-engineer inspector (whether or not the inspector holds a license as a home inspector or not).
