New Circuits & Rewiring
When is rewiring needed?
Rewiring is necessary when your existing wiring is damaged or outdated. Over time, wiring can become damaged due to wear and tear, exposure to moisture, or pests. Additionally, older homes may have outdated wiring that is not up to modern safety standards. Rewiring involves removing the old wiring and installing new wiring that meets current safety codes.
When adding new circuits or rewiring, it’s important to work with a licensed and experienced electrician. Electrical work can be dangerous, and mistakes can have serious consequences.

Hot Tub Rewiring
More Info
If you’re planning on installing a hot tub on your property, it’s important to understand the importance of hot tub wiring. Hot tubs require a significant amount of electricity to run, and improper wiring can lead to safety hazards and damage to your hot tub.
First and foremost, hot tubs require a dedicated circuit that is properly sized for the electrical load. This means that the circuit should be designed to handle the amperage of the hot tub, as well as any other electrical loads that may be on the same circuit. The circuit should also be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) to prevent electrical shocks and electrocution.
In addition to the proper circuit, hot tub wiring must be done according to local electrical codes and safety standards. This includes proper grounding and bonding to prevent electrical shocks, as well as proper placement of electrical components to prevent damage from moisture and other environmental factors.
Improper hot tub wiring can lead to a number of hazards, including electrical shocks, electrocution, and fires. Faulty wiring can also damage the hot tub itself, leading to costly repairs or even replacement.
To ensure proper hot tub wiring, it’s important to work with a licensed and experienced electrician. Matlock Electric can assess your electrical needs, recommend the appropriate wiring and circuitry, and ensure that all wiring is installed safely and up to code.
