A homeowner in 1226 71st St, Brooklyn, NY reached out to Daven Electric Corp. after experiencing frequent power outages, flickering lights, and overloaded circuits. Their home still had outdated wiring and an aging 100-amp electrical panel, which could no longer support modern appliances and devices.
After a detailed electrical inspection, we identified several critical issues, including old cloth-covered wiring, improper grounding, and unprotected outlets in wet areas. To improve the home’s safety and efficiency, we recommended a complete rewiring and an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel.
🔹 Outdated Wiring System – The home had cloth-covered and knob-and-tube wiring, which posed a serious fire hazard.
🔹 Overloaded Electrical Panel – The existing 100-amp panel struggled to handle the homeowner’s new kitchen appliances and HVAC system.
🔹 Lack of Proper Grounding – The home’s electrical system wasn’t properly grounded, increasing the risk of electrical shock.
🔹 No GFCI or AFCI Protection – The kitchen and bathrooms were missing GFCI outlets, and the system lacked arc-fault protection for fire prevention.
As an experienced Brooklyn electrician, we provided a complete electrical overhaul to bring the home up to modern standards.
✅ Full Home Rewiring – We replaced all outdated wiring with modern copper wiring, ensuring safe and reliable power distribution.
✅ 200-Amp Electrical Panel Installation – The new panel allows the homeowner to run all their appliances and HVAC system without tripping breakers.
✅ Dedicated Circuits for Appliances – We installed separate circuits for high-power appliances, including the refrigerator, washer/dryer, and air conditioning system.
✅ GFCI & AFCI Protection – To improve safety, we installed GFCI outlets in the kitchen, bathrooms, and outdoor areas and added AFCI protection to prevent electrical fires.
✅ Whole-Home Surge Protection – To protect the home from power surges, we installed a whole-home surge protector, ensuring appliances and electronics remain safe.
✅ Modern LED Lighting Upgrade – The homeowner requested energy-efficient lighting, so we installed LED recessed lights throughout the home for better illumination and lower energy costs.
Once the upgrades were completed, the homeowner experienced immediate improvements in their electrical system:
✔ No more power fluctuations or flickering lights
✔ Increased safety with properly grounded wiring and GFCI outlets
✔ Enough power capacity to support all modern appliances
✔ Energy-efficient LED lighting, reducing electricity bills
The homeowner was thrilled with the results and praised our team for our professionalism, fast service, and attention to detail. They now have a safer, more efficient electrical system that meets all modern NYC electrical codes.
