Electrical Safety
Audits
Professional technical audits and residential inspections engineered to identify hidden risks and ensure total code compliance for your property infrastructure.
Prevention is the Essential Standard of Safety
An electrical safety audit is more than a checklist; it is a professional diagnostic evaluation of your property's entire electrical backbone. At Bixler Electric Inc, we provide a comprehensive electrical inspection for families and business owners across Ocean and Monmouth Counties. Whether you are moving into a new house in Toms River or managing a facility in Wall, our audits find the technical failures that standard home inspectors miss.
Hazard Identification: FPE, Zinsco & Legacy Wiring
A primary focus of our electrical inspection is identifying dangerous legacy components. If your house contains a Federal Pacific (FPE) or Zinsco panel, or utilizes ungrounded wiring, your structure is at a significantly higher risk for fires. These legacy circuit breakers are notorious for failing to trip during overloads. We provide the documented findings required by New Jersey insurance carriers to facilitate a priority electrical panel upgrade, securing your property value and family's safety.
Real Estate & Insurance Compliance
Navigating a real estate closing often hinges on clean electrical inspections. We specialize in pre-sale residential safety inspections and post-inspection repair work. We verify that GFCI and AFCI protection is properly installed and that your ground wire installation meets current NEC standards, satisfying both township inspectors and meticulous buyers.
Commercial & Industrial Site Audits
For our commercial partners, an electrical safety audit is a vital part of risk mitigation. We conduct specialized inspections for retail spaces, office build-outs, and warehouses to verify three-phase power stability. In industrial environments, we prioritize hazardous location wiring checks and thermal diagnostics to prevent dangerous downtime, ensuring compliance with OSHA and municipal safety sub-codes.

Audit & Inspection FAQ
Why does my insurance company require an inspection?
Insurance carriers use an electrical safety audit to assess fire risk. If your house has outdated panels or ungrounded wiring, they may require a certified electrical inspection to maintain coverage.
What is the difference between an audit and a home inspection?
A standard home inspection is a visual overview. A Bixler technical audit involves opening panels, testing circuit breakers, and verifying ground integrity to find hidden dangerous hazards that visual checks miss.
How often should I have an audit?
For residential properties, we recommend an electrical inspection every 3 to 5 years. Commercial and industrial facilities should be audited annually or after any significant work or machinery expansion.
