Questions and Answers
My Poway home has aluminum wiring. What should I do?
Aluminum wiring, common in older Poway homes, can be a fire hazard due to oxidation and loose connections over time. We strongly recommend a professional electrical inspection. Alisoh Handyman can assess the condition of your wiring and perform crucial safety upgrades, such as installing COPALUM connectors or AlumiConn lugs at outlets and switches, which are approved methods for creating safe, permanent connections between aluminum and copper wiring.
Can you help connect a backup generator to my home's electrical panel?
Absolutely. Safely connecting a backup generator is essential, especially with Poway's occasional power needs. We handle the entire process, from assessing your home's load requirements to installing a proper transfer switch—either manual or automatic. This critical device prevents 'backfeed,' which is dangerous for utility workers and your home. Our installation ensures your generator powers your essential circuits safely and in compliance with all local electrical codes.
Why is my new light fixture flickering or not working after installation?
Flickering or non-functioning fixtures after installation often point to an improper connection, which is a particular concern with aluminum wiring. It could be a loose wire nut, a faulty switch, or an incompatible connection method for your home's wiring type. Our electricians will diagnose the issue, check for any underlying problems with the circuit or wiring, and make a secure, code-compliant repair to ensure your new fixture operates safely and reliably.
