What Is "Bad" Electrical Wiring?
When we call electrical wiring "bad," we mean it is faulty. This can be because the wiring is physically damaged, there is improper voltage running through them, or there is great risk of either. They can become faulty or bad for a variety of reasons. General wear and tear, rodent attacks, electricians taking risky shortcuts, and poor-quality installation material are just a few that come to mind. In any case, it is imperative that you are aware of the quality of the electrical wiring in your home.
The Risks of Bad Electrical Wiring
Electrical wiring is the conduit through which electricity travels from point A to Point B and beyond. You already know electricity is an incredibly volatile and dangerous element, so it goes without saying that electricity that is out of control is a serious safety hazard. Bad electrical wiring exposes you to grave risks including electrocutions and electrical fires. Sudden electrical surges and short circuits can also fry electronics, devices, and appliances. In short, bad electrical wiring is bad for your safety and your wallet.
We have established what constitutes "bad" wiring and reviewed some of the risks of such wiring, but how do you know your wiring is faulty? Frankly, the best way is with an electrical inspection, which we recommend once every year or two. However, there are some other signs to watch out for:
