Repair or replacement

The fault determines whether a part needs adjustment or replacement. We recommend settling that question before approving work on the backup system.

Questions about emergency battery backup repairs

Can an electrician repair a faulty battery transfer switch?

Yes, Chris Miller Electric repairs a faulty battery transfer switch when the fault can be corrected.

The condition of the component matters. If repair isn't suitable, we'll explain the replacement work and give you a quote before you decide how to proceed.

What should I tell you before a battery repair visit?

The system's warning message and affected circuits help us understand the fault before a visit.

Have the equipment information available if you can safely read it. Tell us whether the issue began during an outage or after electrical work, and let us know about any access concerns.

When is a backup system fault a reason to call the utility?

An outage beyond your home is a reason to report the power loss to your utility.

We address faults in your home's electrical and backup equipment. If you aren't sure where the problem starts, describe what has lost power and any message on the battery display when you speak with us.

Which parts of a switching repair change the quote?

The faulty part and the work needed to reach and repair it change the quote.

A replacement component can change the scope from an adjustment. We'll explain the proposed work after assessing the system, and you can request a quote before authorizing the repair.

Should I keep resetting a breaker for the backup system?

No, don't keep resetting a breaker that trips repeatedly.

A repeated trip signals a fault that needs attention. Tell us which breaker trips and what equipment was running. We'll troubleshoot the circuit and discuss the repair needed before returning the system to use.
