Aging Electrical Wiring

The great news is that replacing your entire wiring system isn’t always necessary. Homes built in the 1960s and 1970s often feature outdated aluminum wiring, while the 1940s and 1950s saw the use of non-metallic wiring. If your house was constructed before 1930, it could still have knob and tube wiring, which poses safety risks. These older systems may have worn-out wires or loose connections. Our electricians can repair damaged wires, upgrade older systems where needed, and ensure safe, modern wiring connections throughout your home.

Your Home Needs New GFCI Outlets

According to regulations, ground fault circuit interrupters, or GFCI outlets, are required in any area of your home where moisture is present. GFCI outlets should be installed in places like bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, saunas, pool areas, and similar spaces. These outlets feature “Test” and “Reset” buttons and are designed to help prevent electrical shocks.

You Have Ungrounded Two-Prong Outlets

Old two-prong outlets are unsafe and outdated. Without proper grounding, you could face the risk of electric shock. Our electricians can easily replace them with modern, grounded three-prong outlets.

You Don’t Have AFCI Outlets

An arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) is crucial for reducing the risk of hazardous electrical arcs. Functioning as circuit breakers, they shut off power when a dangerous arc is detected. These devices are required in bedrooms and other areas of the home.

Your Appliance Outlets Are Outdated

Many older homes still have outdated appliance outlets. Modern appliances require a four-prong, 240-volt outlet to function properly. Our electricians can quickly upgrade the outlets in your home to ensure compatibility with today’s appliances.

You Need More Power

Many older homes have 60-amp circuit breakers, which are no longer sufficient for modern electrical needs. To safely run all your appliances and devices, at least 100 amps are required. Our electricians can upgrade your circuit breaker box wiring to ensure reliable, uninterrupted power for your home.

  • There are certain signs that indicate your electrical system may not meet your power needs. Below are some common indicators that it’s time to upgrade your wiring:

    • Hot outlets
    • Flickering lights
    • Dimming lights
    • Frequent electrical outages
    • Buzzing sounds from outlets and walls
