Electrical Load Testing

Verify your system capacity and performance

About Our Electrical Load Testing Service

Madison Electric measures how your electrical system performs under real-world conditions through comprehensive load analysis. Our electrical load testing service evaluates whether your circuits, panel, and service entrance can handle current demands and future additions safely. We use specialized equipment to measure voltage, amperage, and power quality at various points in your system during normal operation. Your electrical infrastructure must deliver stable power across all circuits without exceeding design limits. Our technicians document the load on each circuit, identify imbalances that reduce efficiency, and calculate available capacity for upgrades or additions. We test voltage under load conditions to detect problems like undersized service cables or poor connections that cause voltage drop and equipment malfunction.

What’s Included in Our Electrical Load Testing Service

An overloaded electrical system can cause frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, and potential fire risks. At Madison Electric, our electrical load testing service helps you understand exactly how much power your home or business uses and whether your electrical system can safely handle it. We use advanced diagnostic tools to measure load capacity and identify areas that need improvement.

Here’s what’s included in our electrical load testing service:

Comprehensive System Evaluation

We begin with a full inspection of your electrical panel, wiring, and circuits to understand your system’s current configuration and capacity.

Load Measurement and Monitoring

Our electricians measure the actual electrical load across circuits to determine how much power each one is drawing under normal and peak usage.

Circuit Load Balancing Check

We identify unbalanced circuits and redistribute loads to prevent overheating and improve efficiency.

Breaker and Fuse Testing

We test breakers and fuses to ensure they are functioning correctly and protecting your circuits from overcurrent situations.

Wiring and Connection Assessment

Our team checks for damaged or undersized wiring that could restrict current flow or cause voltage drops.

Panel Capacity Analysis

We evaluate whether your main electrical panel has enough capacity for your current and future power needs.

Detailed Load Report and Recommendations

After testing, we provide a detailed report outlining your system’s performance, along with professional recommendations for upgrades or adjustments.

Safety Verification and Compliance

We make sure your electrical setup complies with all local and national codes, reducing the risk of power failures or fire hazards.

Stop guessing about your electrical capacity and get accurate measurements from trained professionals.
