The Holmes Group’s Guide to GFCI Protection
The Holmes Group - GFCIs (ground-fault circuit interrupters) are required in areas with moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor spaces. They work by shutting off power if they detect a ground fault, which helps prevent electric shocks.
If a GFCI won’t reset or keeps tripping, it could indicate a problem with the wiring or moisture intrusion. A licensed electrician should inspect and replace any faulty GFCI outlets to ensure proper function and safety.

The Holmes Group Recommends Upgrading Outdated Electrical Panels
Older electrical panels may not be able to handle the electrical demands of modern homes. An outdated panel can lead to frequent circuit overloads, breaker trips, and even fire hazards.
Signs that an electrical panel may need an upgrade include frequent tripping, scorch marks, or corrosion. If the panel is more than 25 years old, it is recommended to have it inspected by a licensed electrical contractor.
