ELECTRICAL PANEL UPGRADES

Your home may be in need of electrical panel and service upgrades.

 

Does your Southern New Jersey or Shore location home still have an old style fuse panel? Are circuits overloaded? Are your meter sockets corroded? Are your service entrance cables frayed or deteriorated? Have circuits been “doubled-up?” Has new wiring been added over the years, and does it meet code? Has your Insurance Company refused to renew your home insurance policy?

 

If you answered yes to any of these questions you are in need of Electrical Panel and Service Upgrades!

Modern Electrical Panels

 

Modern Circuit Breaker Panels are more convenient, and are built to far higher safety standards than outdated fuse panels.

 

Extra protection is incorporated into the latest equipment in the form of circuit breakers. These circuit breakers protect every device in the house with sensitive circuitry that responds quickly if there is a fault, opening the circuit and eliminating the risk of danger. There is also excellent protection available in the form of Ground-Fault Circuit Breakers and Arc-Fault Circuit Breakers.

 

Older Equipment and wiring systems did not have to support the modern appliances of our day. Overloading and doubling up of circuits is commonly seen on older outdated fuse panels, the result of improper installations that were never inspected. This can cause fires. Upgrading the source of power distribution to your home by installing a new Circuit Breaker Main Service Panel, can eliminate this potentially dangerous situation.

Electrical Panel Upgrades | More Information

 

Your electrical panel hides safely behind a little closed door, recessed into the wall. It can be easy to ignore, especially if the breakers never trip or there are no other problems manifesting themselves. However, regular maintenance is required to keep your electrical panel working at its best. When you get electrical panel upgrades you avoid potential trouble due to unforeseen electrical issues.

 

Tripping breakers are not necessarily an indication that your electrical panel is malfunctioning. In fact, breakers are designed to trip to help you avoid problems. They trip when the circuit experiences more than it can handle. Here’s how you generally know the current state of your panel:

 

  • Appliances or outlets don’t work, indicating potential panel problems
  • Your electrician detects trouble during a regular panel inspection

 

Panels are constantly handling electrical current. Loose wires may mean that connections are worn down to arcs rather than physical contacts. Annual electrical home safety inspections will ensure that your panel has proper connections so you can avoid electrical emergencies.
