Professional Electrical Wiring Services
for Homes and Businesses

What Is Electrical Wiring?

Electrical wiring is the installation and distribution of cables and associated devices. Electricity comes from a service head, or “weatherhead,” that compromises two 120-volt wires and a single neutral wire. These connections are what keeps your home electrically powered. Wiring is not just limited to electrical cables and wires but also includes sockets, electrical switches, and distribution boards.

Now before you tell yourself, “I can do that by myself!” you may want to think twice. Wiring services performed by a professional electrician give you peace of mind that your electrical cables were installed safely. Our team can also carry out electrical wiring repairs.

When it comes to wiring, the electricians at Burton have you covered.

At Burton, we offer customized electrical wiring services for both businesses and households. Our services include repairs for specific types of wiring and verification of the correct phase design.

Electrical Wiring Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my home needs rewiring?

It’s hard to know if you need a complete rewiring without professional help, but signs like these may indicate you do:

  • Burning smell around your areas like your outlets
  • Hearing a cackling or buzzing sound
  • Lights constantly flicker
  • Circuit breaker frequently trips

How long does a wiring project take?

The length of a wiring project varies based on factors like the complexity of the project, property size, and how accessible your wiring is. A whole-house rewiring may take only a few days—but sometimes it can take a couple of weeks. Consult with a specialist at Burton to get a better idea about the scope of your wiring project.

Common Electrical Wiring Types

Aluminum vs. Copper wiring

Aluminum wiring was a staple in homes in the 1960s and 70s, but it’s become a fire hazard since it can overheat easily. For today’s modern homes, aluminum would not be a good choice. Instead, we recommend re-wiring with copper. Copper wiring eliminates fire risks while also being much more durable and flexible. The material creates better conductivity and a higher current carrying capacity.

Conduit Wiring Systems

A conduit system is a collection of tubes, typically made of metal and plastics, that protects and routes electrical wiring to the correct location. These systems can be altered to suit their environment while also protecting the wiring from factors like moisture or impacts.
