  • Our home wiring experts can help determine if your home needs upgraded electrical wiring. We stay up to date with industry changes, allowing us to update your wiring to comply with modern electrical code standards.

    During an electrical safety inspection, we also evaluate the health of your wiring. The most common signs you may need to update the electrical wiring in your home in Land O’ Lakes include the following:

  • We know rewiring your home’s electrical system is a complex project. Our electrical experts don’t always need to replace the wiring completely. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often have outdated aluminum wiring, while homes built in the 1940s and 1950s have non-metallic wiring.

    If your home was built before the 1930s, it might have hazardous knob and tube wiring. We can upgrade these types of wiring, replace frayed wires, and install new connections.

    You should have professionals inspect your system and complete necessary wiring updates if you notice the following:

    • Burning smells: Old wiring may cause a spark and produce a burning smell when you turn switches on.
    • Flickering lights: Wires with wear and tear may cause a voltage increase, resulting in flickering lights.
    • Tripping breakers: Outdated wires may demand a higher, unsafe amount of electricity.
    • Visible damage: Old wires may look frayed or present heat marks.
    • Loose outlets: Wires may become loose or fall out of the socket.
    • Odd noises: Aged wires may create a buzzing, crackling sound.

  • One of the most significant signs of an outdated electrical system is ungrounded two-pronged outlets. Without proper grounding, the outlet’s electrical excesses can only go into the person or device that is in contact with it.

    A surge protector cannot protect these types of outlets from electrical excess. Installing three-pronged outlets with grounded wires is critical to help reduce the risk of electric shock.

    Our service professionals have experience updating home electrical wiring in Land O’ Lakes for many property owners. Experience peace of mind when you contract our skilled team to install your new outlets.

You Need Updated Safety Devices

Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)outlets have “Test” and ”Reset” buttons on their receptacles. The safety devices quickly shut off power when they detect a leakage or ground fault current, helping protect you from electric shock in areas with moisture around your home.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCIs are required in your laundry room, spa area, swimming pool area, garage, bathrooms, kitchen, basements and other areas with moisture. We can quickly and easily install updated GFCI outlets to boost your property's safety.

Your Home Lacks Electrical Monitors

Damaged wiring may cause electricity to jump between several conductors in an unplanned way, causing heat to break down wire insulation. Arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) detect and respond to arcing faults in wiring, which can boost your home's safety.

NEC requires AFCI installations in living rooms, bedrooms, sunrooms, dining rooms, and other gathering spots. Some states require AFCI installations in all the home’s circuits.

If you don't have AFCIs, our team can provide your solution. We provide proper installations and routine maintenance to ensure the devices operate properly.

  • Appliance outlets for your washers, ovens, and dryers must safely draw high amounts of electricity. While these high-powered outlets didn’t always need unique plugs, today’s appliances require a 240-volt outlet for safe performance.

    Most modern 240 plugs have four prongs for updated safety. These outlets feature a ground slot, two live slots, and a neutral slot to minimize electrical risks and meet NEC standards.

    We often find three-prong wiring in homes with older electrical systems. If you have three-prong wiring, you should hire service professionals to reduce your electrical risks and make your system compliant. Our team updates electrical wiring in homes around Land O’ Lakes and beyond.
