Monday, July 17th, 2023

Your home’s electrical panel is what controls your entire electrical system. Also known as the circuit breaker panel, incoming electricity is routed to the different circuits through this hub. The breakers are designed to shut off circuits if there is a voltage overload.

How to Tell if You Need Home Rewiring Services

Monday, May 22nd, 2023

If the electrical panel in your home is the “heart” of your electrical system, its electrical wiring is the veins and arteries. When things start to go wrong with your home’s wiring, it’ll become readily apparent in many ways.

If you live in an older home that was built 30+ years ago, then the risk of experiencing electrical problems is greater than if you lived in a new home. Early electrical wiring was not always well grounded or insulated, which means that older wiring has a higher chance of having issues and potentially igniting an electrical fire.

Also, modern-day appliances and usage make excessive demands on your home’s wiring that older home electrical systems aren’t necessarily used to. High-efficiency appliances, smartphones, and all modern electronics can be taxing to the system.

You should never attempt DIY fixes when it comes to your home’s wiring. Let’s go over some issues that require a highly trained electrician for rewiring in Nashville, TN to take care of it for you.
