Portland Aluminum Wiring Replacement
If your home was built in the 1960’s to the late 1970’s, there is a good chance that electrical wiring in your home might be aluminum wire instead of copper wiring. Since the mid-1970’s, only copper wiring has been used in homes, due to aluminum wiring was found to pose a fire hazard. You might need to have aluminum wiring replacement done in your Portland home.
Aluminum wiring is can be a fire hazard wherever it is spliced or makes a connection with an outlet, switch, circuit breaker or other component of an electrical system. One reason aluminum wiring is such a fire hazard is because it shrinks and expands depending on the temperature. These changes to the aluminum wires can result in overheating, sparks and fires. Due to such safety risks, only copper wiring has been used for electrical systems since the late 1970s.
