Electrical Rewiring​

Rewiring a house means replacing old or unsafe electrical wiring to ensure your home is safe, up to code, and capable of handling modern power needs. If your home has outdated wiring, frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or ungrounded outlets, a full rewire may be necessary to prevent fire hazards and electrical failures.
For most homes, rewiring includes upgrading the electrical panel, running new wires, and installing modern outlets and switches. Since this often requires opening walls and ceilings.
Understanding Your Electrical NeedsBefore starting a rewiring project, it’s important to evaluate how much power your home actually needs. Many older homes were built with electrical systems that can’t handle today’s high-energy demands from modern appliances, home offices, and entertainment setups. A proper assessment ensures your new wiring system is safe, up to code, and built to handle future upgrades like electric vehicles or solar panels.
Evaluating Your Current Electrical Panel

Your home’s electrical panel (also called a breaker box) controls how much power can safely flow through your wiring. If your home was built decades ago, it may still have a 60-amp panel, which is too small for modern electricity needs. Most homes today use 100-amp or 200-amp panels:100-amp panels – Suitable for homes up to 3,000 square feet with standard appliances and moderate energy use.200-amp panels – Ideal for larger homes, electric vehicle chargers, or high-energy appliances like tankless water heaters.

New Installation.

Electrical installations are an essential part of our lives, because daily and every hour we are making use of equipment that works thanks to the energy supply they provide, whether in our home, workplace, public places and even on the street.
Therefore, it is very important that an excellent job is done when making an electrical installation, to obtain the best performance in energy and above all that it provides us with optimal security.
No detail should be overlooked in a construction project and electrical installations are one of the most important. Performing a bad electrical installation can cause fires, so it is essential to do it properly.
 
Having energy is very important for everyone, but it is also dangerous and causes accidents. That is why they must be done seriously, professionally and with the right materials no matter what types of electrical installations are made.
There are three types of electrical installations:

Residential installations are those made in homes to provide energy to appliances such as refrigerators, televisions, ovens and washing machines.
 
Commercial installations are made with the aim of saving energy in large volume in a business.

Industrial installations are made in remodeling or constructions and include power and lighting circuits that can be of different voltages such as high, medium and low.
A good electrical installation allows energy to reach all appliances in a comfortable, simple, effective and, above all, safe way to avoid accidents.

Ev Chargers

Electric vehicles are gaining popularity nowadays, as they are a key piece in the energy transition process. In fact, the number of sales in the last year has skyrocketed. And it is very likely that the next car you buy will be partially or fully electric. With this transition from an internal combustion engine vehicle to an electric vehicle (EV), you may be wondering how can I fill the "tank"?
What is an electric vehicle charger?
An electric vehicle (EV) charger is the equivalent of a gas pump for fossil-burning vehicles – that's how you fill your EV's "tank." Except instead of a gas tank, your EV has a battery. And instead of using gasoline to power your car's engine, an EV's engine runs on electricity.
EV chargers come in different shapes and sizes. There are residential EV chargers, commercial EV chargers, and even portable EV chargers. But the two biggest differences between an EV charger and a traditional gas pump are: where you can place it and what comes out of it.
This may seem elementary, but it's an important distinction: with a gas pump, you can only refuel at gas stations; after all, you wouldn't put a gas pump in your house. But with an EV charger, you can install an EV charger wherever you are; which means you can charge your vehicle at work or at home, and not just at gas stations.

​Electric Panel Upgrade.

An electrical panel is a metal box that controls the flow of electricity to different rooms and appliances in your home
Benefits of Upgrading Your Electrical Panel
