The Dangers of Aluminum Wiring 

Aluminum wiring was widely used from the mid-1960s to the early 1970s, due to high copper prices at the time. After many homes caught fire, aluminum wiring stopped being used. The biggest danger of aluminum wiring is the risk of electrical fires, which is more than 50 times higher than with copper wiring. Properties with aluminum wiring are at a much higher risk of electrical fire, due to the wiring overheating at the connections. 

It is important to know that aluminum wiring does not meet current electrical codes. If the wiring in your home is aluminum, an electrician or building inspector will recommend replacing it with copper or aluminum mitigation. In some cases, it can be difficult to get property insurance when the house has aluminum wiring and, if you can get insurance, you may pay a higher premium. 

The Aluminum Mitigation Process 

Improving the safety of your electrical system does not require completely replacing all your aluminum wiring. Since the problem with this wiring is overheating at the connections, aluminum mitigation in is effective for solving the problem and less expensive than whole-house rewiring. This involves installing a section of copper wire at the end of the existing wiring.

Aluminum mitigation is specialized work that should be handled by a qualified electrician. Professional electricians have the training needed to safely handle aluminum wiring mitigation and make sure all connectors are replaced with copper to reduce the risk of devastating injuries or property damage. 

Your electrician can inspect your electrical system to confirm the presence of aluminum wiring and discuss the work that may be needed for aluminum wiring mitigation and any other upgrades that may be needed to bring your property up to code. When the job is complete, your property will be safer, you will save money on insurance premiums, and the value of your home will be increased.
