Residential Panel Change-Out

Is it time to change your Panel?

Here are some signs that it might be time for an upgrade:



Frequent Tripped Breakers: If your breakers trip often or your panel feels hot, it’s a sign that your panel is struggling to handle your electrical load.

Old or Outdated Panel: If your panel is older than 25-30 years, it’s likely due for an upgrade, primarily if your home still uses fuses or an older model panel.

Lights Flickering or Dimming: Flickering lights, especially when using multiple appliances, could mean your panel can’t handle your home’s electricity demand.

Burning Smell or Scorch Marks: Call an electrician immediately if you notice a burning smell or see scorch marks around your panel or outlets. This is a severe safety hazard.

Adding New Appliances: If you’re installing new significant appliances (like an EV charger, hot tub, or HVAC system), your panel may need an upgrade to support the additional power load.
