FAQs
Why should I consider a lighting upgrade for safety in my Jacksboro home or business?
Older fixtures and wiring can overheat, short-circuit, or draw more current than your panel was designed to handle. Upgrading to modern, energy-efficient lighting reduces electrical load, improves visibility to prevent trips and falls, and brings your system up to current NEC and Jacksboro code requirements, lowering the risk of shocks and electrical fires.
What types of lighting upgrades contribute most to electrical safety?
Key safety-focused upgrades include replacing incandescent or halogen fixtures with cooler-running LEDs, installing fixtures with built-in surge protection, adding motion or occupancy sensors to reduce misuse, upgrading to tamper-resistant receptacles, and integrating arc-fault or ground-fault protection where lighting circuits are newly added or extended.
How do LED conversions help lower fire hazards?
LED lamps operate at much lower temperatures than incandescent or halogen bulbs, dramatically reducing the chance of heat-related ignition in ceilings or enclosed fixtures. They also draw up to 80% less current, easing the strain on wiring and breakers, which decreases the likelihood of overheating conductors and tripped circuits.
Are your electricians licensed and familiar with local Jacksboro codes?
Yes. Every technician we send to your property holds a Texas electrical license and undergoes regular continuing-education courses on both National Electrical Code (NEC) changes and specific Jacksboro municipal amendments. That means your project is completed to the highest safety standards and passes city inspections the first time.
Will I need a panel or wiring upgrade when I update my lighting?
Not always, but it depends on the age and capacity of your existing electrical system. During our free on-site assessment we measure current loads, inspect conductor conditions, and determine whether new circuits or panel spaces are required. If an upgrade is needed, we’ll provide a detailed, itemized quote so you understand scope, cost, and safety benefits before work begins.
How long does a typical safety-driven lighting upgrade take, and will my power be off?
Most residential jobs are completed in one day, while medium-sized commercial projects may run two to three days. We schedule work in phases to keep outages brief—usually under 30 minutes per circuit—so your home or business experiences minimal disruption. If a longer shutdown is unavoidable, we coordinate with you to choose a low-impact timeframe or provide temporary power options.
