Why Aluminum Wiring Needs Attention
Aluminum wiring behaves differently than copper and requires specialized handling. If not maintained or upgraded, aluminum wiring can lead to:
Overheating at outlets and switches
Loose or deteriorating electrical connections
Flickering lights or intermittent power
Tripped breakers or overloaded circuits
Increased fire risk from failing connections
Regular inspections and upgrades help ensure your electrical system stays safe, stable, and fully compliant with electrical standards.
