A frayed refrigerator plug can easily be classified as a very serious risk, both to the fridge itself, and to your entire home. Frayed, ripped, or otherwise damaged cords are a potential source of electrical fire, arcing and power failure. So, what do you do when you discover a frayed plug on your appliances?

Put simply, get it repaired! Often, replacements are available, but are very costly, and occasionally entirely unavailable depending on the age and model of your fridge.

Many homeowners carry out electrical upgrades in their home and they get the fixtures and fittings replaced. At times, switchboards etc. may be replaced or circuit breakers too. However there is one component of electrical installations that is typically out of sight, out of mind – wiring!

We at Allround Electrical always recommend to our clients that if their home and the wiring in it, is over two decades old, they should consider getting wiring upgrades done on their property. In fact, when you choose to upgrade the wiring in your home, it gives you the assurance that the system will be able to bear the load of all the electrical appliances that you add to the different circuits on your property.

It’s a good idea to plan wiring upgrades at the same time that you plan remodeling projects; this is when you might open up walls and ceilings anyways; and this reduces the hassle, expense and time spent on getting this work done. This is because most of the electrical wiring is fitted within your walls; and it often involves opening up various wall sections, that will later have to be patched & repainted.

This is why it’s important that you plan for current and future requirements; this will ensure that you don’t have to worry about the wiring upgrades for at least a few more years. So, what is it that makes wiring such an important aspect of the electrical installation on your premises? Wiring supports a range of critical functions including:

When you are getting any of these jobs done, it’s crucial that you hire the services of an expert and experienced electrical company for the job. They will ensure that high grade, appropriate materials are used in the work and that the workmanship is of the highest grade too. While you are getting this job done, there are certain things you should be doing, such as:

These are just some of the basic aspects that have to be attended to when electrical upgrades are being done in your home. When you hire the services of a vetted and credible electrical contractor, you have peace of mind that the job will be handled in the best possible way.
