Solid aluminum branch wiring was installed in millions of homes between 1965 and 1973 and it is still behind the walls in a lot of Pawtucket, RI. The problem is not the wire. It is the connections, which loosen and oxidise until they overheat behind an outlet or switch.

AAA Electric repairs aluminum wiring three ways depending on your budget: AlumiConn or COPALUM pigtails at every device, replacement of every outlet and switch with CO/ALR rated devices, or a full copper rewire. We will look at the house and tell you which one makes sense.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Aluminum Wiring Replacement

Questions we hear most often about Aluminum Wiring Replacement in Pawtucket, RI.

Talk to a real person
How fast can an electrician get to me in Pawtucket, RI?
Most repair calls in Pawtucket, RI are booked for the same or next day. If it is an emergency, a breaker that will not reset, a hot panel or a burning smell, call (877) 351-4541 and we will get someone moving right away and tell you what to switch off in the meantime.
My breaker keeps tripping. Do I need a new breaker or a new panel?
It depends on why it trips. An overloaded circuit needs a second circuit, not a bigger breaker. A worn breaker gets replaced with the correct listed part. If the panel is a Federal Pacific, Zinsco or Sylvania model, or it has no spaces left, we will talk about replacement.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
Aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and early 1970s is a known fire risk at the connections, not in the wire itself. It can be made safe with AlumiConn or COPALUM pigtails at every device, or replaced with copper. We will inspect and price both options.
Can you add outlets without tearing up the walls?
In most rooms, yes. We fish cable through existing walls and ceilings and cut only the box opening. Where an access hole is unavoidable we patch it. Kitchens, garages and bathrooms may need GFCI or a new 20 amp circuit, which we will explain before starting.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Retail, restaurants, offices, small warehouses and light industrial buildings, including three phase panels, motor circuits, exit and emergency lighting and LED retrofits. We schedule after hours where a business cannot close.
