Anderson Electric | Top-Rated Electrical Company in Lancaster, CA

Aluminum wiring can become a fire risk over time due to oxidation and loosening connections. We recommend a professional electrical inspection to assess the condition of your system. Anderson Electric can perform targeted repairs, such as installing proper connectors (pigtailing with copper) at outlets and switches, or recommend a full panel upgrade to a modern system with copper wiring to ensure long-term safety for your home.

Absolutely. Proper generator connection is critical to avoid back-feeding power into the grid, which is dangerous for utility workers and your home. We install transfer switches or interlock kits that safely isolate your home from the main power lines when the generator is running. This ensures your essential circuits are powered during an outage without risking damage to your electrical panel or creating a safety hazard.

Before a renovation, we recommend a full electrical inspection. Key issues in older homes often include outdated fuse boxes or undersized electrical panels that can't handle modern loads, ungrounded outlets (2-prong), deteriorating aluminum wiring, and insufficient circuits. Upgrading your panel, adding circuits, and replacing outdated wiring and outlets are common services we provide to ensure your renovated space is safe, up to code, and ready for your new appliances and lighting.
