“I want to talk about 3 products that we see as necessary and are extremely helpful to the operation of your home” says Wise. They are:
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle is a special type of outlet that can automatically shut off power directly at the outlet when it detects an electrical fault. Resetting of the GFCI happens a lot this time of year, due to inclimate weather, like hurricanes and storms that knock out power” says Wise. This necessary device can be found around places where there is water. He adds “ Often times you’ll find the GFCI hidden behind places where people will put furniture.” If you should lose power in your outlets check the GFCI and push the reset switch.
Generators
“If the power is lost for a week and you cannot survive without electricity then you need a generator” says Wise.
There is nothing quite as nerve-racking as having the power go out and having no idea when it will return. It is particularly concerning when you have a refrigerator and freezer full of food that will spoil if the electricity stays out for too long. We count on electricity for so many things that even a short outage can be quite inconvenient. That is why more and more Charlotte, North Carolina homeowners are having generators installed. At Mister Sparky by Wise Electric Control Inc., we can help you with getting familiar with generators and getting one properly installed. There are many options for generators, including fuel types and output ranges. The most reliable type of system is a wired one. Generators that are part of a wired system are the safest both for you and your family, as well as line repair technicians. Improper use of generators allows power to back feed into utility lines, which can prove fatal for those working to get power restored. We can set your wired system up to switch on automatically or manually.

They are designed to warn you against potential threats caused by fire and smoke that could put your family in danger.
