Signs the wiring in your home may need replacement include:

• Tripping Circuit Breakers: Circuit breakers trip to prevent overloads and overheating. A breaker may trip when you plug in a certain appliance. However, if it does so repeatedly, you may have faulty or outdated wiring, which can lead to further damage or a fire.
• Flickering Lights: If a light is flickering or dimming and you can’t attribute it to a loose bulb or fixture problem, your electrical wiring may be loose or deteriorating. Have an electrician evaluate your wiring to determine whether to replace it.
• Malfunctioning Electrical Sockets: If a socket or receptacle is burnt, bad wiring may be the reason. It can cause sparks, overheat a socket, or cause a short circuit. An outlet or plug may feel hot when used; oftentimes, this is due to melted insulation.
• Burning Odors: A burning smell near an outlet or switch is often a clear indicator of faulty electrical wiring. Stop using the outlet, turn off the circuit breaker for it, and call a professional who can fix electrical house wiring in OC to prevent a dangerous situation.
• Shocks: Every electrical shock, even the slightest tingle, is a big warning sign and safety hazard. Shocks can mean the connection is improperly grounded or a wiring conductor is exposed. They can cause serious health issues and even death.

We most often replace electrical wiring in Orange County in homes that are over 40 years old. Aluminum wiring installed decades ago has likely deteriorated and is not compatible with many appliances and technologies anyway. It is less heat tolerant and more prone to loose connections and overheating. Damaged wires and power cords are also more likely in older homes, so if you haven’t, schedule an electrical inspection to determine what steps to take.

We are always ready to send a crew to your OC home. If necessary, our electricians can reach you in as little as 60 minutes. Expertise in electrical wiring is handy for many different electrical projects, including the following which we can provide:

GFCI Outlet Installation

Installing ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets requires someone experienced with electrical outlet wiring in Orange County. A GFCI outlet will detect a ground fault and cut power to connected devices in a fraction of a second, avoiding shocks, burns, and other hazards associated with high electrical currents and contact between electricity and water. 

Electrical Panels

Every electrical circuit in your home is connected to the main electrical panel. The condition of the panel is directly affected by the state of your home wiring. A faulty panel can lead to a short circuit or fire related to wiring problems. We can provide repairs and electrical panel upgrades to ensure your home is safe and functional.

Circuit Breakers

Whether a breaker is damaged or a wire is defective, we can find the issue and perform the appropriate repairs. A breaker panel can malfunction due to one faulty wire. Wherever it is, we’ll find it and stop breakers from tripping and circuits from overloading.

Ceiling Fans

Ceiling fans require complex wiring connections and often have lights with additional electrical components. A wiring issue can cause a fan to malfunction and become a safety hazard. However, our electricians install, troubleshoot, and repair ceiling fans in Orange County to keep your home safe, cool, and comfortable.
