  • There are approximately 50,000 home electrical fires each year. A large portion of those are caused by unchecked instances of electrical overload. Electrical overload occurs when an excess of amperage flows through part of your electrical system. Each part of your electrical system, from your wiring to your light fixtures, is made to handle a certain amount of electricity. Components can overheat and start a fire when that level of amperage is exceeded. The modern practice of installing circuit breakers prevents electrical overload by continually monitoring the amperage running through each part of your home.

  • There are many different instances that call for you to install new circuit breakers in your home. In some cases, it may be a matter of safety, such as when your current breakers are failing. In other cases, you might want to upgrade your breakers as part of a home improvement project. Below, you can find some of the most common times when you should consider replacing your circuit breakers.

Tripped Breakers

Do you get annoyed by making continual trips to your electrical panel to reset tripped breakers? That’s a pretty sure sign that you need some circuit breaker update services. While it’s not unusual for a breaker to trip from time to time, it shouldn’t be a frequent occurrence. When a breaker is tripping on a regular basis, it may be a sign that the breaker is wearing out or that you need a higher-capacity breaker.

Specialty Lighting

Mr. Electric of Salt Lake City can help you install a wide variety of specialty lighting in your home, such as canned lighting, track lighting, or wall sconce lights. When you are installing new light fixtures in your home, it is a good time to consider upgrading your circuit breakers to ensure that they are equipped to handle the additional electrical demand.

Security Systems

Installing a new security system will make your home safer and more secure. A security system can increase the demand for your home’s electrical system. Your security system won’t offer you any additional safety if it gets shut down due to a tripped breaker. So, we often recommend upgrading your circuit breakers or installing a dedicated electrical circuit to ensure that your security system is working at all times.

Appliance Installation

It’s exciting to install a new appliance in your home. A brand-new washing machine, refrigerator, or water heater can provide you with many benefits. However, you want to ensure that your electrical system is ready to handle the electrical load of a new appliance. Mr. Electric of Salt Lake City will check your circuit and perform any circuit updates necessary to get your home ready for a new appliance.

Generator Installation

When you install a standby generator in your home, it will prevent your family from being stuck in the dark during a large-scale blackout. While the neighbors are hunting for candles and flashlights, your power will kick on in an instant. Generators that supply power to your entire home need to be wired into your electrical panel, which means they require their own dedicated circuit. Mr. Electric of Salt Lake City can help you install a generator and the circuit that connects it to your home.

Energy-Efficient Upgrades

Whether you’re interested in saving the planet or cutting costs, energy-efficient upgrades seem like the way of the future. As you make your home more energy efficient with EV chargers or solar panels, it’s important to keep electrical safety in mind. Many of these new electrical features will require a high-capacity circuit breaker and their own circuit. Ensure your eco-friendly upgrades are installed properly by calling the pros at Mr. Electric of Salt Lake City.
