Electrical Panel Upgrades in Phoenix Metro, AZ

Keep Up with Your Home’s Energy Demands

As technology advances and our reliance on electricity grows, it's important to ensure that your home's electrical panel is up to date. The electrical panel, also known as the circuit breaker box, regulates the flow of electricity through your home. A circuit breaker is designed to stop the flow of electricity when the demand skyrockets. The safety mechanism is designed to prevent overloaded circuits, which can lead to electrical fires. Over time, wear and tear can cause the electrical panel to become outdated and potentially unsafe. Upgrading your electrical panel keeps your home safe and increases its efficiency. Contact us to learn more about our electrical panel upgrade services.

  • An electrical panel is the central hub for all the electricity in your home. It receives power from your utility company and distributes it to the various circuits in your house. Each circuit is protected by a breaker or fuse, which helps prevent overloading and potential electrical fires.

  • An electrical panel upgrade can benefit your home in many ways. Some of the most common reasons people choose to upgrade their electrical panels include the following:

    Increased Energy Demand

    Modern-day technology makes most homes reliant on high energy demands. Your current electrical panel may struggle to keep up with these demands.

    Home Renovations

    If you're planning on adding new rooms or major appliances, such as a hot tub or electric car charger, your existing panel may not be able to handle the additional load. Upgrading to a larger panel will ensure that you have enough capacity to power all your new additions.

    Aging Panel

    Electrical panels have a lifespan. If your home is over 20 years old and still has the original panel, it may be time for an upgrade. Older panels are more likely to have outdated technology and potentially faulty wiring, which can increase the risk of electrical hazards.

Symptoms of a Defective Electrical Panel

While older electrical panels deteriorate over time, most of their problems come from overloaded circuits. The first sign of a struggling electrical panel is when lights flicker as you power on appliances. When a circuit panel is defective or malfunctioning, you will notice frequently tripped breakers. They may even fail to trip, shocking someone. If a breaker fails to trip, it can cause melted wires, smoke, fire, or electrocution. It’s essential to get our professionals to inspect the health of your electrical system.

Signs You May Need an Electrical Panel Upgrade

  • Appliances cannot run at full power
