Electrical Panels

Do you need your electrical panel replaced, upgraded or repaired?

 

Electrical panel replacement and repairs are services that involve fixing or upgrading the main component of your home’s electrical system. The electrical panel, also known as the breaker box or fuse box, distributes power to different circuits and protects them from overloading or short-circuiting. If your electrical panel is old, damaged, or malfunctioning, it can pose a fire hazard and affect the performance of your appliances and devices. A licensed electrician can inspect your electrical panel and determine the best course of action, whether it is repairing the existing panel or installing a new one. Electrical panel replacement and repairs can improve the safety, efficiency, and value of your home.

Common signs that you may need to replace your main electrical  panel or sub-panel.

Your panel is an essential part of your home’s electrical system, but it may not last forever. If you notice any of these signs, it may be time to call a licensed electrician and replace your panel:

• Frequent tripping: If your panel trips frequently, even when you are not using many appliances or devices, it may indicate that your panel is overloaded or has faulty wiring. This can cause power interruptions, damage your appliances, and pose a fire hazard.

• Dimming or flickering lights: If your lights dim or flicker when you turn on an appliance or device, it may indicate that your panel is not providing enough power to your circuits. This can affect the performance and lifespan of your appliances and devices, and also create a safety issue.

• Warm or buzzing panel: If your panel feels warm to the touch or makes a buzzing sound, it may indicate that your panel is overheating or has loose connections. This can cause sparks, melting, or burning, and create a serious fire risk.

• Corrosion or rust: If your panel shows signs of corrosion or rust, it may indicate that your panel has been exposed to moisture or water damage. This can compromise the integrity and functionality of your panel, and also increase the risk of electric shock or fire.

• Cracked or broken breakers: If your panel has cracked or broken breakers, it may indicate that your sub-panel has been damaged by wear and tear, power surges, or short circuits. This can affect the reliability and safety of your panel, and also make it difficult to reset or replace the breakers.

If you experience any of these signs, do not ignore them or try to fix them yourself. Contact Harper Electrical Contractors as soon as possible and have your sub-panel inspected and replaced. A new sub-panel will not only improve the efficiency and safety of your electrical system, but also increase the value and comfort of your home.
