CODE UPDATES
 

Modern Electric maintains relationships with reputable realtors in the area. All homes must pass electrical inspection. Inspectors want to see homes that are up to code. Any home with code issues raises red flags, which must be addressed by either the buyer or the seller.

Issues such as exposed wiring, non-grounded plugs, double-tap breakers, misplaced GFCIs (ground fault circuit interruptors) can complicate a real estate transaction. Insurance companies will not insure homes with knob-and-tube wiring or fuse panels.
