What our inspection covers

  • 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

Local knowledge for San Rafael, Cibola County

Northwest New Mexico's plateau country brings freezing winter nights, spring wind, and summer lightning. Around San Rafael, that means voltage drop on long feeders, weathered outdoor equipment, and electrical systems that have been added onto over the years.

Most properties in Cibola County get their electricity from Continental Divide Electric Cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

Our electrical inspections covers all of San Rafael, along with neighboring Cubero, Milan, San Fidel, and Grants.
