Electrical Wiring and Repair
Of all the repairs that you may do around your home or business, the most potentially devastating mistakes are in faulty electrical wiring!
Countless fires are caused by poor wiring techniques, substandard materials, faulty extension cords, or defective electrical appliances. The trouble and the trap lies in the apparent simplicity of electrical work. Small mistakes can cause quick and severe consequences. Poor wiring techniques can cause shock hazards that may not be evident until an accident happens.
Over Current Protection and Wiring Sizing, Building Wiring and Switches come in a variety of types and sizes. The importance of choosing the appropriate wiring or device cannot be overstated. Wiring that is not sized appropriately can be detrimental to the appliance it operates.
In today's high technological environments, undersized wiring can lead to intolerable voltage fluctuations that can harm or impede the equipment or its application. Similarly, safety switches may operate motors, equipment, computers, lighting, processes, and a multitude of other applications. When a switch is not installed in the exact appropriate manner for its design, electrical codes, and the installation application, the switch itself can affect the life of the equipment attached and even create a hazard. Whether your connection needs are simple or complex, Pittaoulis Electric will find the best solution to provide a value added installation for your needs.
Service Changes and Upgrades
A very common question many people ask is whether or not they need to upgrade their electrical service. All structures have limited electrical capacity. When a service is upgraded or changed, that capacity is increased, allowing the potential for more circuits to be installed and used.
Many homes and businesses still have their original 100 amp service, so when it comes time to remodel or add an addition, often there is little or no room in the distribution panel to install the required additional circuits. The amount of electricity available to use is limited by the capacity of your main breaker. So when major appliances that need electrical power are added, or the size of the building is increased, very often the electrical capacity of your service needs to be increased as well.
In addition, many electrical services have been hanging on the side of buildings for a long time, subject to deterioration caused by the environment and weather. Some have become damp and corroded; some have been overloaded over the years and due to overheating, joints and connections have become loose. Some services still rely on fuses, which, because of their age, are corroded, overstuffed and overheated. These conditions are dangerous and good reasons to invest in changing your service.
