Common Reasons for an Electrical Panel Upgrade

Why Upgrade Your Electrical Panel? Your home’s electrical panel is the heart of your electrical system, distributing power from the utility company to the various circuits in your home. Over time, electrical panels can become outdated, leading to insufficient power distribution, safety hazards, and the inability to support newer appliances.

Increased Power Demand

If your circuit breakers frequently trip when using multiple devices or high-powered appliances, it’s a sign that your panel is overloaded and struggling to keep up with modern energy demands.

Insurance Requirements

Some homeowners’ insurance policies may require electrical panel upgrades to ensure the home meets modern safety standards. In fact, updating your panel can potentially lower your insurance premiums.

Outdated or Recalled Panels

Older panels, such as Federal Pacific or some Square-D models, have been recalled for safety reasons and are more prone to malfunctions. Replacing these outdated systems ensures compliance with modern safety standards.

Home Renovations

Adding rooms, new appliances, or systems such as hot tubs, electric ovens, or air conditioning units significantly increases your home’s electrical load, often requiring an upgraded panel.

Safety Concerns

Faulty or old panels pose a fire hazard. Upgrading your electrical panel ensures your system includes advanced safety features like arc-fault and ground-fault circuit interrupters.
