Why Hire an Electrician for Appliance
Installation?
When it comes to appliance installation not many
would fancy the idea of hiring an electrician to
do the job because all that needs to be done is
simply plugging in the electric cord into the
socket and the appliance begin to function. But
depending on the age of your home you might need
the visit of an electrician to check the outlets
and circuits to ensure the existing wiring can
handle the extra load of the new appliance.

electronics to our home. Whether it's a new

refrigerators just to mention a few and let's not

When the electrician visits your place he will
check all points and also check what load
capacity your home has, but that's not all. He
will also check the internal wiring of your home
and see if they are good enough to take up
additional load. If yes then you are lucky and
you can start using your new appliances straight
away but if he says that you need to upgrade the
internal wiring at your home then that means a
lot of additional expenses. This expense has to
be made because until you do that you are running
the risk of wires not being able withstand the
load leading to electrical service faults.

In the past, homes had 100 amps of service coming
to serve household electrical needs. Today, 200
amp service is rapidly becoming the norm. You may
need more power coming to the house, a new
electrical panel, or grounded outlets, but
whatever the case, it's critical to understand
that bad or insufficient wiring and overloaded
circuitry poses a risk of fire. Even though many
modern appliances consume less energy than in the
past, they also have advanced electronic
circuitry. Plugging them into a bad system could
do irreparable damage to the appliance. While
this is an extreme case, a very realistic
scenario is that you find that they do not
operate at full power or use energy efficiently.

install and start using a new appliance. It's
always a happy time for the family when a new
appliance of convenience or entertainment comes
but it's equally important to check whether or
not your home is electrically prepared for it.
