If you have invested your time, money and expertise in building a professional reputation as an electrical contractor or electrician, participating in the +5 Homeowners Electrical Protection Plan should be an easy decision for you.
The major drive behind the +5 program is to raise the level of professionalism among contractors and electricians and to educate homeowners so they know what to expect and demand from the industry. Ultimately, that means safer homes and safer families.
There is no fee to join the +5 program; it just requires your commitment
to uphold professional excellence as a contractor or electrician. Too
many homes have inadequate electrical systems installed, which means
the needs of the homeowners, and their families are not met. These poor
installations result in nuisance tripping of breakers because circuits
are overloaded, lights dimming and electronic devices being damaged
as a result of voltage drops when several electrical devices are turned
on at once. Cutting corners and poor workmanship can even lead to home
fires, which may result in severe, and unnecessary damage, and even
worse, loss of lives. +5 Electrical Contractors and their electricians
wire a home like it is their own.
