Aluminum Wire Removal

Aluminum wiring was widely installed in homes and buildings decades ago, but today it is known to present serious safety risks when left unaddressed. Loose connections, overheating, and increased fire hazards are all common problems associated with aluminum wiring. NJC Electric provides professional COPALUM-certified aluminum wire remediation services across New Jersey, helping property owners eliminate these dangers and bring their electrical systems up to modern safety standards.

Why Aluminum Wiring Can Become a Serious Hazard

Aluminum expands and contracts more than copper, which causes connections to loosen over time. These loose connections can lead to arcing, overheating, and electrical fires inside walls or outlets. We help homeowners and business owners understand where aluminum wiring exists and how it can compromise the safety and reliability of their electrical system.

A Detailed Inspection by Certified Professionals

Every COPALUM service begins with a comprehensive inspection of your electrical system. We identify all aluminum branch wiring and evaluate each connection point for signs of wear, corrosion, or overheating. This detailed assessment allows our certified electricians to determine exactly where remediation is needed and how to correct the issue safely and efficiently.

COPALUM-Certified Safety Solutions

We use the COPALUM crimping system, the only method approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission for repairing aluminum wiring. This permanent solution safely bonds copper pigtails to aluminum wires, creating a strong, stable connection that prevents future overheating. Our COPALUM-certified technicians follow strict procedures to ensure every connection is secure, code-compliant, and built for long-term reliability.

We upgrade each outlet, switch, and junction point to modern copper connections, improving electrical performance and safety throughout your property. This approach is efficient, cost-effective, and designed to deliver lasting results.
