Home Panel Upgrade

 

Owning a home is a serious business and, as a homeowner, there seems to be a constantly growing list of projects and tasks to keep your house comfortable and functioning.

If you are in need of a panel upgrade, that should bump to the top of your home improvement checklist. Look no further than Wireman Electric LTD to handle all of your custom home electrical renovations including your home panel upgrade.

What is an electrical panel?

In simple terms, your home’s electrical panel is what connects outside electricity from your service provider into your home. The panel itself, sometimes called a breaker box or distribution panel, is the main component that allows for your home to have electricity. Depending on a variety of factors, these boxes will need to undergo panel upgrades.

When will I need a home panel upgrade?

Breaker boxes will typically last a good few decades, but that is not the sole indication of when you need a home panel upgrade. Old homes typically operate on a 60 – 100 amp panel, but changes in technology have required most new homes to have 200 amp electrical panels instead. If you live in an older home or do not currently have a 200 amp electrical panel, you should seriously consider installing one to accommodate appliances, computers, and higher energy draws. Further, if your current panel is warm to the touch, smells funny, or trips regularly or your lights flicker, your appliances are running at full capacity, or you utilize a lot of power strips, you may be the perfect candidate for a new electrical panel.
