Benefits of Electrical Inspection in Old Houses

  2. USE OF TWO-PRONG INSTEAD OF THREE- PRONG OUTLETS The two-pronged only outlets indicate that the outlet is ungrounded, which means it’s not equipped with ground-fault circuit interrupters, also known as GFCIs. These circuit interrupters prevent electrocution in the kitchen and bathrooms, as GFCIs only take four milliseconds to shut down the circuit in case of danger. FREQUENTLY TRIPPED CIRCUIT BREAKERS When home appliances draw more energy than the breaker allows, the circuit breaker trips, but having this issue repeatedly without the actual use of high- energy devices can be a sign of loose connections in the electrical system.

  3. ALUMINUM WIRING It’s another outdated wiring method that loosens electrical connections because the metal heats up more than copper wires, which can cause melting insulation. KNOB AND TUBE WIRING This wiring method doesn’t provide the needed energy for modern home devices. Knob and tube wires are easily overheated and can cause a fire.
