  • The cost may be daunting when considering updating electrical wiring in an old house. However, this service is essential. Without modern wiring, your home cannot support the power demands of your devices. Furthermore, outdated wiring can result in various unfavorable hazards, including electrical shock, fires, and damage to your electronics.

  • If you suspect it’s time to update electrical wiring in your home, it’s likely due to age-related concerns or problematic symptoms of faulty wiring. The common reasons our customers look to us for electrical wiring upgrades include:

Age-Related Concerns

Older homes have a unique demand to upgrade the electrical service to 200 amps or more. That’s because older properties are often set up with aluminum wiring, metallic wiring, or knob and tube wiring. These outdated wiring issues may not require a total overhaul but require upgrades to mitigate safety and performance hazards.

Undergrounded, Two-Prong Outlets

Homes with undergrounded, two-prong outlets require prompt electrical wiring updates. These types of electrical set-ups are highly dangerous as the faulty grounding promotes a surplus of electricity that can cause overloads, damage to electronics, fires, and electrocution.

GFCI Outlets

Homes without GFCI outlets require electrical rewiring. If an outlet does not have a reset and test button, your home is not adequately protected from electric shock or fires. These outlets are particularly important in moisture areas, including bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms.

AFCIs Protection

If your home is not equipped with AFCIs, you are unsafe from electrical distress, such as fires or shock. AFCIs are a backup to circuit breakers, halting the power flow when a hazardous power arc is suspected. AFCIs are mandatory for bedrooms according to state law.

Insufficient Appliance Outlets

Certain heavy-duty appliances call for enhanced outlets to promote safe and effective power. For most modern appliances, 240-volt outlets are required. As such, older model 240-volt, three-prong outlets must be replaced by new-age 240-volt, four-prong outlets with additional wire grounding for increased protection.

Outdated Electrical Panel

It’s essential to upgrade your electrical service to 200 amps or 100 amps at a very minimum. In the past, 60-amp electrical wiring and panels were sufficient. However, these do not provide enough power or safe use for modern homes, appliances, and devices. Fortunately, Mr. Electric Of The Black Hills is here to help.

When to Upgrade Wiring in Your House

You should update the electrical wiring in your home every 25 years. Newer electrical wiring boasts an enhanced lifespan, meaning your system may surpass the recommended 25-year threshold. However, to avoid unexpected problems, it’s best to have electrical inspections done every couple of years to monitor the condition of your system and catch problems before they develop.

  • When your home needs electrical wiring upgrades, there are several signs to look out for. These signs may include flickering or dimming lights, hot or warm outlets, and buzzing sounds within your walls. Furthermore, you may also experience power outages even when the weather is nice.
