Plug & Outlet Replacement

Outlets wear out over time, the internal contacts that grip the plug prongs lose their tension, causing plugs to fall out and creating poor connections. Non-GFCI outlets in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor locations are a safety and code compliance issue. RCC Electric replaces outlets throughout East Tennessee quickly and correctly.

Common outlet replacement situations include replacing worn two-prong ungrounded outlets with modern three-prong grounded or GFCI outlets, replacing standard outlets in wet locations with required GFCI protection, and replacing arc-faulted outlets that have been damaged by electrical events.

If your home has older ungrounded wiring, we can discuss the code-compliant options for outlet replacement, including GFCI-protected outlet replacement, which provides shock protection even without an equipment ground.
