Santa Clarita Electrician

Watch for the following signs you need to replace your home’s electrical wiring:

• Burn marks or heat coming from outlets or switches. No part of your electrical system should ever feel hot to the touch or show evidence of burning – if it does, that’s a big red flag that your wiring is unsafe and in need of replacement.
• Your circuit breakers constantly trip. If you’re always resetting your circuit breakers, that probably means that they are overloaded and cannot keep up with your home’s current electrical output.
• You have noticed frayed or bent wires. It may seem obvious, but any sign of wire deterioration means that it’s time to replace them to avoid a potential electrical fire.
• You experience frequent electric shocks. Do you ever feel a mild electrical shock or tingle when you touch an appliance? This isn’t normal. If it happens continually, you might have a problem with your wiring.
• You have an older home or are purchasing a home. Ultimately, if you are unsure about the condition of your wiring, it’s a good idea to schedule an inspection so you can be aware of any repairs that need to be made.
