Aluminum Wiring Replacement
S&S Electric is a full service electric company ready and waiting to handle all of your Aluminum Rewiring needs. If your home is over 10 years old there is a solid chance that it has or had aluminum wiring. Aluminum wiring is such a high risk that many loans will not be approved by banks with houses that still have it present.
Electrical Safety Inspections
It is advisable to have your home electrical system inspected every couple years or more. Also if you are buying, selling, remodeling, or refinancing it is often a good idea if not required. The level of quality of inspection is greatly influenced by the experience of the inspector. Make sure to hire only a trusted and experienced professional for any and all Electrical Safety Inspections.
Home Generators
Silver Spring home generators are permanent. They are installed outside the home and activate just like a central air conditioning system, but instead of turning on when it’s warm inside, they turn on when sensing the loss of electricity. This type of generator is much more commanding than one that is portable, supplying power to a much larger amount of circuits.

Surge Protection

Knob & Tube Wiring
When Knob and Tube wiring was first introduced in the home electrical wiring industry, most common household electrical appliances were no larger than a small toaster or coffee maker. The electrical advancements of the 20th century are well-known for using higher amps and power loads such as televisions, refrigerators, and a plethora of other electric appliances. It is not uncommon for our electrical inspectors to find Knob and Tube Wiring connections wrapped with masking tape or Scotch tape instead of electrical tape.
Many of these knob and tube wiring connections were made by insufficiently trained handymen, rather than experienced electricians, whose work made the wiring system vulnerable to overloading.
Whether you need Knob & Tube Wiring, Knob Tube Re-wiring, or just need a professional electrician, S&S Electric has you covered. We look forward to welcoming you as a customer and being your preferred electrician whenever you have a Knob & Tube Wiring problem in your Fairfax home.
Panel Upgrades
Fairfax electrical panel upgrades can bring your outdated breaker box up to speed with the demands of today’s power needs. Don’t let an inadequate power supply hold you back: contact your local electricians today!
From bigger televisions to computers to high-powered microwaves, fridges, and dishwashers, today’s homes are jam-packed with high-tech gadgets. All of this technology makes our lives more comfortable, convenient, and entertaining, but the simple truth is that most older homes weren’t built to power all of these electricity-hungry appliances and electronics. The breaker box that was installed when your house was built was more than sufficient to power a few lights, electrical sockets, and basic appliances, but it doesn’t have the capacity to keep up with today’s technology and your energy demands. The good news is that S&S Electric’s professional electricians in the Fairfax and Silver Spring area can help you modernize your house with an electrical service upgrade, enhancing your building’s electrical capacity to meet today’s needs.
