Electrical Challenges Specific to Burnaby Homes
Burnaby's housing spans from 1940s wartime homes to brand-new developments, each with distinct electrical considerations.
Post-War Home Wiring
Many Burnaby homes built in the 1940s-60s have original wiring that wasn't designed for today's electrical demands. These homes often need complete rewiring and panel upgrades.
Increased Power Demands
Modern appliances, home offices, EV chargers, and air conditioning have dramatically increased power needs. Older Burnaby homes frequently need service upgrades from 100A to 200A.
Rental Suite Requirements
Burnaby has specific requirements for secondary suites. Proper electrical separation, metering, and safety systems are essential for legal compliance.
High-Rise Electrical Systems
Burnaby's growing number of high-rises have complex electrical systems requiring specialized knowledge for repairs and upgrades within strata regulations.
Oil Tank to Electric Conversion
Many older Burnaby properties are converting from oil heating to electric heat pumps, requiring significant electrical upgrades.
Whether you're in an established Burnaby neighborhood or a new development, our team has the expertise to address your specific electrical needs safely and efficiently.
