Aluminum wiring
The 1965 to 1973 window covers a large share of Margate houses. We inspect the terminations and recommend remediation or rewiring based on what we find, not a blanket answer.
Electrician in Margate, FL
Certified electrician serving Margate and Broward County
Margate is one of the older cities in this part of Broward, with much of its housing from the 1960s and 1970s. That makes it one of the places we most often find aluminum branch wiring and original panels still in service.
What we see in Margate homes
Across Oriole Estates, Holiday Springs, and the neighborhoods along Margate Boulevard, the same few situations come up again and again.
Original service equipment
Panels and meter cans from the original build are past their design life. A permitted replacement resets the service and usually satisfies an insurer who has asked about it.
Outlets and grounding
Two-prong outlets, ungrounded circuits, and missing GFCI protection are common. Sometimes a GFCI solves it; sometimes the circuit needs a real ground path.
