WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Walter C.

HAPPY CLIENT

I had Standtech work on two projects for me. I found the price quoted highly competitive with others I sought estimates from. Both of the project I contracted with Standtech for were completed on time and on budget. The work was performed as specified and those who did the work arrived on time, went about their business in highly professional manner, completed the work to my satisfaction and left things neat and clean. I was very satisfied with the work Standtech did on the two projects I hired them for and wouldn't hesitate to hire Standtech again.

Ensuring Code Compliance & Safety Standards in Manhattan

At StandTech Electric, we follow every local regulation within Manhattan and strictly adhere to the National Electrical Code (NEC). This ensures your inspection meets all legal and safety standards—important for avoiding issues during a property sale or renovation.

If you’re buying, selling, or updating a property in Manhattan, an electrical inspection is a smart move. Even upscale or renovated buildings may have old wiring systems or overlooked code violations that can become dangerous or costly if not addressed.

Many Manhattan buildings were constructed long before current NEC standards and may not be designed to support the heavy power usage of modern life. From streaming devices and smart thermostats to home offices and electric ranges, homes today require more energy than ever.

Our licensed electricians are trained to identify whether your system is up to the task. We follow Manhattan-specific codes and provide comprehensive inspections that reveal risks and offer actionable solutions to bring your electrical system up to modern demands.

  • Bathrooms

    • GFCI receptacles are required in bathrooms.
    • There must be a receptacle within 3 feet of the outside edge of the sink basin.
    • No receptacles face-up on countertops.

Electrical Safety Inspections in Manhattan Can Prevent Electrical Fires & Electrocution Risks

Older wiring, overloaded breakers, and outdated outlets are still common in many Manhattan buildings. When components start to fail, the risk of overheating and arcing increases. Arcing occurs when electricity jumps erratically between points, producing intense heat—similar to a lightning bolt. Combine that with ungrounded outlets or frayed insulation, and you have a serious fire risk. The safest move? Have your system inspected by a licensed Manhattan electrician.
