Electrical Wiring

If you think your house has outdated wiring, then be alarmed because the risk is very high, especially if you own an old home. Outdated wires can cause dangerous electrical systems. You can say that there are no visible damages, but the danger might be lurking behind your walls. This can put your family and your home at risk. Many homeowners are hesitant to update their electrical wirings because of the cost and the hassle, but to help you decide, here are the most important reasons why you should go with the update.

Safety for Your Family and Home

Most older homes have power outlets that only have two prongs, instead of three. This means that they are outdated because most modern appliances now have the third prong. Two-prong outlets can cause a problem because they are not able to provide enough power which can cause the fuses to blow. Aside from that, the old outlets are prone to power surges

You might wonder what the third prong is for? It serves as a connection to the ground wire. It is a grounding conductor that protects your home from a power surge. Your electrical wirings should meet today’s safety standards. For an average homeowner, telling whether they have old wiring can be difficult. But you should watch out for warnings such as warm outlets, the flickering of power, and also any loose plugs and switches.

Improve Your Residential Power

A modern home’s energy consumption needs about 200 amps of electrical service in order to meet all needs. However, older homes only have 100 -150 amps of electricity, especially the Victorian homes. If you upgrade your electrical capacity to 200 amps, this will allow you to plug in more appliances without worrying about overloading.

Reduce Your Risk For Fire Accidents

Statistics reveal that half of the house fires are caused by the faulty electrical system. This results in injuries, property damages, loss of home, and even death. Electrical overloading can be prevented if your electrical system is updated. Remember that overload can cause sparks from blown fuses. These sparks can also be caused by loose wires in switches.

Protect Your Electrical Appliances From Power Surges

Power surges are the major culprits when it comes to damaged electrical appliances in your home. Your computers can have memory loss and your other appliances can fry up too. Aside from your computers, your television and gaming systems are also the ones that are most vulnerable to power spikes. But if you have the modern electrical system, this can include a whole-house suppressor that can give protection from surges of 40,000 and more. These surge protectors upgrades can keep your electronics and your appliances safe.
