Once homes are built, the wiring is rarely inspected after it's installed.

How Do I Know if My Wiring Needs Updating?

Is your electrical system showing signs it's time to update the wiring in your home? Several things indicate it's time for wiring updates. Even if you haven't experienced signs, checking your wiring is important to ensure it's updated to code and safe for your family. Some common signs you need to update the electrical wiring in your home in Oklahoma City, OK include:

  • Your House Has Old Wiring – Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s had aluminum wiring installed in them, which is a well-known safety hazard today. Knob and tube wiring in homes built before the 1930s and non-metallic wiring in homes in the 1940s and 1950s are also hazardous. Our electricians can also replace any frayed wires and loose connections.
  • You Have Ungrounded Two-Pronged Outlets – These outlets are considered a significant safety hazard, putting your property and family at risk. You can reduce the risk of shock and increase your system's reliability by having our electricians install grounded wires and three-pronged outlets.
  • Your Electrical Panel Isn't Updated – Can your electrical panel keep up with your home’s demand? Homes today typically need between 100 and 200 amps to successfully power all the appliances and electronics we use. Having your breaker box wiring upgraded is the best way to keep up with the increasing demand.
  • You’re Missing GFCIs – GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) outlets were designed to protect people from getting shocked in areas prone to moisture in  their homes. The most updated electrical code requires GFCIs to be installed laundry rooms, bathrooms, kitchens, crawlspaces, basements, garages, and other areas that are prone to being damp. 
  • You’re Missing AFCIs – An AFCI (arc-fault circuit interrupter) prevents electrical fires in the home because it acts like a circuit breaker, immediately shutting off the power when it encounters a potentially dangerous arc. AFCIs are required in all 50 states per the electrical code, and some states require homeowners to install AFCIs in all the circuits in their home. AFCIs ensure electricity can be used safely and reliably in your home.
  • Your Appliance Outlets Are Inadequate – Heavy-duty appliances like washers and dryers require a 240-volt outlet to safely draw more electricity. Most of the 240-volt plugs made today include four prongs to improve safety. Our electricians can replace your outlets to ensure safety and reliability.
