Electrical Inspection in Las Cruces, NM

An electrical inspection tells you what is really going on behind the walls and inside the panel. National Electric NM performs electrical inspections in Las Cruces, NM for home buyers, sellers, landlords, and anyone who wants to know their wiring is safe.

What our inspection covers

We look for the issues that matter most in Las Cruces homes: overloaded or recalled panels, aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded outlets, missing GFCI protection, amateur wiring from past remodels, and sun-damaged exterior wiring.

  • Service entrance, meter base, and grounding
  • Main panel and sub panels, with the cover removed
  • Breaker sizing against wire size
  • Outlet testing, polarity, and grounding
  • GFCI and AFCI protection where required
  • Visible wiring in attics, crawl spaces, and garages
  • Smoke and carbon monoxide alarm placement
  • A written summary with photos and priorities

Good times to schedule an inspection

  • Your home is more than 40 years old and has never been checked
  • Your insurer has asked about the wiring or panel
  • Before a major remodel, EV charger, or air conditioning upgrade
  • After storm, flood, or fire damage

Why Las Cruces properties call a local electrician

In southern New Mexico's desert, Las Cruces summers push air conditioning, coolers, and well pumps hard for months at a time, and monsoon storms bring lightning and short outages. Heat is tough on breakers, and the sun is tough on anything installed outside.

Depending on your address, power in Dona Ana County typically comes from El Paso Electric. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
