Computers, dishwashers, TVs, refrigerators, stoves and microwaves require a dedicated plug in the modern home. But as we plug in more and more appliances, our electrical systems can start to lose effectiveness. Many homes feature outdated electrical systems, especially those over 40 years old. If you own such a home, it's time to schedule a professional wiring update in Riverview.
Luckily, Mr. Electric of Riverview is here to help. Our team has experience with all types of circuits and outlets and can make the necessary updates quickly. Count on us to help you avoid all electricity-related safety concerns.
When to Schedule Electrical Wiring Repairs in Riverview
Your Home Lacks Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs)
Like GFCIs, AFCIs are crucial safety measures. They act as circuit breakers and will automatically disconnect in the event of a risky arc. You'll find AFCIs in bedrooms across the United States, and some regions require them throughout the home. Our electricians will install these outlets if they're lacking in your home.
There Are Still Two-Pronged Outlets
If you live in an older home, you may notice more two-pronged outlets than three-pronged ones. These outlets were standard decades ago but are no longer safe to use. They lack proper grounding and often allow excess electricity to surge into your devices (even if you have a surge protector). Two-pronged outlets are a safety risk for you and your electrical appliances. Let our team know if you need wiring repair, and we'll find the proper three-pronged replacements.
Appliances Aren't Running at Full Power
Many modern appliances require special 240-volt outlets to receive adequate power. Nevertheless, not all homes have the proper four-pronged receptacles. If you need improved outlets for heavy-duty appliances, be sure to talk to our electricians.
