Prevent Electrical Accidents Through Our Grounding Electrical Service in NYC
Electrical mishaps occur at the most unexpected moments. Perhaps you plugged too many electronic devices into your extension cord, causing an overload. Or maybe lightning suddenly struck nearby, leading to a dangerous power surge in your electrical system, excessively increasing the voltage levels.
If there is no electrical grounding for shocks installed in your home or office, the extra electricity will have nowhere to go. It will end up flowing through wiring and metal surfaces, damaging electric devices and even causing fires. This is why we provide electrical service grounding in NYC to keep people safe in the face of unforeseen hazards. Our licensed electricians are fully trained in electrical earthing installations, complying with local electrical codes to ensure your property is completely secured.

How Does Grounding Safeguard Your Property from Electrical Hazards?
Now that you know what electrical grounding is about, you may be curious as to how it works. The entire process happens instantaneously, in a fraction of a second, but goes a long way in keeping you safe and sound. Here’s what electrical panel grounding does during a power surge:
- A sudden voltage spike sends extra electricity to pass through your electrical system.
- The excess electricity flows through wires and is redirected to the grounding wires.
- The grounding wire prevents the electricity from passing through appliances.
- The electricity is transferred to the ground through the grounding electrode.
- If the electrical fault is significant, your GFCI outlets shut off power immediately.

A ground fault happens when electricity fails to complete its circuit because the electric current unintentionally flows into the ground, causing the breaker to trip. Anyone who touches the grounded object can experience a shock too.
