Wiring is Wiring
It is well to remember that every time the elec
tric wiring in your home is altered the result is
either a perfect wiring job left intact (if the
work is done by an experienced electrician) or
your whole wiring system is imperfect if some
one place is merely tampered with by an ama
teur. To be cautious is to be wise when it comes to
electrical work. No matter how small the job.
have it done right then your home will be safe.
