Why do I need to upgrade my Electric Panel?

 

As a rule of thumb, electric panels need replacing every 25-40 years, so if your home is that age, there’s a likelihood that you will need to upgrade. However, there are other key signs to look out for that will tell you when your existing system is becoming outdated and needs a replacement.

 

Here are a few other indicators that you should upgrade your panel immediately:

  • Faulty wiring
  • You get shocked when turning on or
  • off lights
  • You smell burning
  • Your electrical panel is warm
  • You see scorch marks around sockets

 

At a minimum, if you’re experiencing any of the problems above, you should call a professional to perform an inspection as soon as possible.

 

Incorrect wiring or an outdated panel can weaken power to lights, overload your system, destroy appliances, and present a dangerously unsafe environment.

F.A.Q.

Frequent Questions

What do emergency electricians do?

An emergency electrician is an electrician who will come out at short notice with no prior appointment to fix an electrical problem that has just occurred.

What do electrical repairs do?

Electrical repairs involve a wide variety of services, ranging from major installation, or rewiring your home, to changing out a broken light switch or receptacle. It is often a difficult task to diagnose a particular electrical issue at home without the help of a trained professional.

What is the first thing to do in an electrical emergency?

Unplug the appliance and turn the power off at the premise’s main power switchboard to avoid any further damage. If there’s a burning smell, smoke, or fire, call 9-1-1 or your local emergency services.

Can a handyman do electrical work?

Remember handymen who aren’t qualified electricians can do basic electrical work but can’t do work that requires certification. It’s highly recommended that if you require certificated work to be carried out that you hire a qualified electrician.
