What Is The Home Electrical Safety Code?

Understanding The Home Electrical Safety Code.

Never hurts to know what to expect when it comes to home safety codes. Safety maybe boring, but hope and plan for it to always stay that way. Ask an electrician to make sure you have the proper electrical protections around the home.

When Do I Need To Update To Modern Electrical Safety Code?

In theory every house will eventually have to update to modern safety code. That being said there is such thing as the "Homeowner grandfather law". The Grandfather law means that your home is subject to the safety code at the time of the original build.

Whenever you do an electrical update to your home is when you have to start to go by modern safety code. Knowing when you can go by modern safety code and when you do not have to is what an electrician specializes in.

How Often Does The Electrical Safety Code Change?

Home safety codes updates every 3 years. Know required updates can cause unexpected costs to future home projects. Better just to do it the right way, and get it done with.
