Studies have shown that since the 1950s electrical use has increased by over 400 percent. This shouldn’t come as a surprise because we didn’t have computers or smartphones to power in those days, and the appliances that were around like refrigerators have grown in their sophistication. So, if your energy demands have continued to expand, have you made the necessary adjustments in your home or business to make sure that what’s behind the walls can deliver the electricity you need?
The type of cable used to wire homes and businesses has made dramatic changes since the 1950s as well. Electrical safety codes change every four years, which only adds to the urgency of the situation. Chances are if you moved in to an older commercial or residential building that’s been around for a long time, you are overdue for a rewire. Even if you built your commercial or residential building from scratch, if it’s been a couple of decades since you thought about the wiring, you might benefit from a rewire.
Wiring, over time, eventually starts to show visible signs of degradation. Whether it’s been damaged in a rodent infestation, exposure to water, overheating or something else, rewiring your home or business decreases the risk of fire and other hazards associated with damaged electrical systems. The key is to a successful and safe rewire begins with finding the right electricians for the job.
