  • Your home electrical panel is a metal box, typically gray, usually located in the basement or a closet. The box contains the circuit breakers that control the power supply to different circuits or areas of your home. It is the primary connection between your city’s power supply and your home’s electrical system. When power comes into your home from the street, it is converted to the correct amperage that your home’s appliances, lights, and other electrical equipment can handle. If there is a problem converting the power to a safe amperage or if the circuit becomes overloaded, your circuit breaker will trip, and the power will go out in all or part of your home. This protects you from electrical shock or an electrical fire. If you frequently experience tripped breakers, your electrical panel is over 30 years old, or you plan on adding major new appliances to your home, you may need to upgrade your electrical panel.

Signs You Need a Residential Electrical Panel Upgrade


Certain warning signs indicate you need to invest in an electrical panel upgrade or replacement. For instance, if you have an older home that operates on fuses instead of circuit breakers, you should update to a safer electrical panel. Other signs that you should call our experienced professionals for an electrical panel upgrade are:

  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Breakers that keep tripping
  • Using more than one appliance at a time causes a power outage
  • A burning smell or black marks around outlets
  • Sparks or arcs when using appliances
  • A fishy odor
  • Damaged or burnt electrical panel
  • Light bulbs burn out very quickly
  • The electrical panel is hot to the touch
  • You see smoke coming from the panel or outlets
  • You are completing a home renovation or remodel
  • You plan to add major appliances to your home, like a dishwasher or washer and dryer
  • You should not try to learn how to upgrade your home electrical panel yourself. The process requires heavy-duty tools and equipment and an advanced knowledge of electricity, the national electric code, building codes, and electrical safety. If you make a mistake, you could injure yourself or someone else in your family, damage your home, or make your home unsafe. Our team has decades of experience and a comprehensive understanding of the national electric code. We provide electrical services according to industry standards and local and federal building and electrical codes. We will ensure the job gets done correctly and safely without damaging your home.
