Signs of Struggling Electrical Wiring
Do I Need Electrical Wiring Services?
The leading cause of fires on properties is faulty wiring. We follow the current National Electric Code (NEC) updates when upgrading your electrical components. The wiring in your home struggles when it cannot keep up with your energy demands. Our electrical energy safety inspections help determine the current health of your existing wiring. The most common signs you may need electrical wiring updates include:
Aging Electrical Wiring
The good news is that we don’t always need to replace your entire wiring system. In the 1960s and 1970s, many homes were built with outdated aluminum wiring. In the 1940s and 1950s, non-metallic wiring was used in homes. If your home was built before 1930, it may have hazardous knob and tube wiring. All of these wiring types may have loose connections or frayed wires. We can replace any frayed wires, upgrade necessary electrical wiring, and install new connections.
You Need Updated GFCI Outlets
By law, ground fault circuit interrupters must be installed anywhere in your home that may contain moisture. You need GFCI outlets in your swimming pool areas, laundry rooms, saunas, bathrooms, kitchens, and more. A GFCI outlet includes the “Test” and “Reset” buttons and protects you from
electric shock.
Your Two-Prong Outlets are Ungrounded
Two-prong, ungrounded outlets are outdated. If an outlet is not correctly grounded, you are at risk of electric shock. We can quickly upgrade your home with the correct three-pronged outlets.
Your Home Lacks AFCI Outlets
An arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) is essential to help lower the risk of dangerous arcs. They act as circuit breakers and disconnect if they experience a dangerous arc. These must be installed in bedrooms and throughout the home.
You Have Outdated Appliance Outlets
Outdated appliance outlets are found in many older homes. You must have a 240-volt outlet with four prongs to power today’s modern appliances. We can easily update the outlets throughout your home for your modern-day outlets.
You Need More Power
60-amp circuit breakers are found in many older homes. A minimum of 100 amps is needed today to safely operate all of the appliances and electronics in your home. We can install new circuit breaker box wiring to give you the power you need without any interruption.
