• Safety: Old or damaged outlets can be a fire hazard. Faulty switch connections can lead to sparks or short circuits. Upgrading ensures your system is safe and grounded properly.
• Convenience: Adding outlets means fewer extension cords, smarter power distribution, and better access where you actually need it.
• Code Compliance: Modern electrical code often requires GFCI, AFCI, or tamper-resistant outlets; these types may be missing in older homes.
• Energy Efficiency: Smart switches and outlets let you control lighting more efficiently, with features like dimming, timers, and occupancy sensing.
• Aesthetics & Functionality: From sleek wall plates to polished rocker switches, you can reset the look and feel of your home’s electrical interface.

At ION Electrical Services, we provide a wide variety of outlet and switch solutions tailored to your needs and your space:

• Standard Outlets: Replace old or worn-out outlets to improve safety and performance.
• GFCI & AFCI Outlets: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) and Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) outlets improve protection in wet or high‑risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms.
• USB & USB-C Outlets: Modern outlets that let you charge your phone, tablet, or laptop without an adapter.
• Tamper‑Resistant Outlets: Required in homes with children — they prevent insertion of foreign objects, improving safety.
• Smart Switches & Outlets: Control lighting, plug-in lights, or devices using Wi-Fi, motion sensors, or voice commands.

5. Control Logic & Configuration
   For smart switches and dimmers, we set up and configure devices to ensure they work exactly how you want, including any apps, voice controls, or presets.
6. Testing & Safety Validation
   After installation, we test each outlet and switch under load, verify GFCI or AFCI operation, and double-check all connections.
7. Final Walk‑Through & User Training
   We walk you through the new setup, explain how to use smart features or reset GFCIs, and leave you with user instructions and safety tips.
