While changing a battery backup might seem like a minor task, it is a critical flood prevention wiring that requires electrical conversion. At State Street Electric, we don’t just replace the component; we diagnose the underlying cause of the failure to ensure your home’s backup power system remains stable and nec-compliant.

1. Diagnosing power backup issues of Backup power failure: A power outage is often a symptom of a larger issue within your sump pump circuit. Our professional approach involves identifying the specific trigger:

• Pump overload: When too many sump pump motor run on a single line, exceeding the battery backup’s pump horsepower.
• Battery connection faults: Caused by corroded connections or inverter faults that create a sudden, dangerous surge of electricity.
• Gfci faults: Occurring when electricity strays from its intended path, often due to moisture or wet wiring.

2. The Professional Replacement Protocol:We follow a strict sequence to ensure your system is restored without risking damage to your home’s wiring:

• Load Shedding: We identify and disconnect the devices that caused the initial surge to prevent an immediate re-blow.
• Amperage Verification: We ensure the replacement battery backup matches the exact circuit requirements. Installing a higher-amperage battery backup than the wire can handle is a leading cause of electrical fires.
• Terminal Inspection: We check the battery backup holder for signs of “pitting,” carbon buildup, or heat damage, which can lead to poor connectivity and future failures.

Mike showed up on time and was extremely knowledgeable in solving and installing the parts that we needed to get the pump up and operational. If you need a good electrician, I recommend State Street Electric

I purchased a dry/wet sauna and hired State Street Electrical to make the required electrical connections. I received three bids before I selected State Street and couldn't be happier! Kody took the time to properly analyze and came up with best, cleanest and most importantly, safest installation. Their pricing was par with the industry. I would recommend State Street Electrical for your electrical and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again if need arises.

Mike of State Street Electric came out to help me deal with some landscape lighting.  He found out what the problems and had every issue under control in a minimum of time.  His fee was minimum and I was very happy that I found him and his company.  IF you have an electric issue I would highly recommend hime and his company will take care of any electrical problem.
