For most people, the interaction they have with their home’s electrical system is pretty minimal. You plug the cord into the outlet, you flip the light switch, and that’s about it. You probably don’t think much about what goes on behind the scenes, and you shouldn’t have to. After all, the whole point of those switches and outlets is to give you an easy interface to make use of the electricity in your home without having to be an expert on voltages, wiring, GFCI protections, and the like.
However, you would like to know that the system behind those switches and outlets, buried within the walls of your home, is working properly and will continue to do so. That confidence starts with professional electrical installation. In the Seattle metropolitan area you can count on the licensed electricians and contractors at G & S Heating, Cooling & Electrical to install your electrical system properly, and always with your family’s safety in mind.

Electrical Renovations & Upgrades
If you have purchased a fixer upper home in need of some work, or if you just want to inject some new life into a home you have lived in for a while, you may want to consider installing new wiring or upgrading your circuit panel.
Over time, loose connections or frayed wires can develop in your electrical system. This can make your system incapable of handling the heavy burden it must carry each day, as well as making it more susceptible to fires and short circuits. It is possible that old wiring no longer meets the requirements of an area’s building code. In any of these events, all the wiring should be removed and new wiring installed.
You may need to replace other older components of the electrical system, such as the circuit breaker panel or fuse box. The connections in these devices can become loose or damaged over time, and some older models simply do not offer the same protection as new ones. You may also need to increase the amperage your circuit panel can handle. For these reasons, installing a replacement panel may be for the best.
New Construction Electrical System Installation
If you are building a new home, take this opportunity to get everything done precisely the way you want it, including the electrical system. Installation of an entirely new electrical system is a huge job, so be sure to find an experienced installation electrician.
A licensed electrician will already be aware of the local codes and standard safety measures like breakers and protected outlets, but you may want to discuss some additional touches such as energy–efficient LED lights to lower costs or having a custom lighting scheme installed in the backyard.
Your contractor should also be aware of any specific needs for your area, such as a backup system for areas where outages are more common. This may not be required, but may be a good idea depending on where you live.
Whether the job is being done in an existing home, or one that is being constructed, the electrical system installation is a very important process. You want to have confidence in your system for years to come. Customers from all over the Puget Sound area turn to G & S because our installers have great expertise and keep safety at the forefront when performing any electrical work.
