The average lifespan of a home is now more than 35 years. This means that many homes were built before today's electrical appliances were invented. In addition, there has been an increase in the consumption of energy, frequently overloading the home's system. Do you need to upgrade or replace your electrical panel? Please see the following homeowners checklist:
Do your lights flicker?
Are your breakers constantly tripping?
Do your fuses blow regularly?
Does your panel box make a crackling sound?
Are your electrical service conductors overheating?
Are you renovating your home or making an addition to your home?
Did you add a sauna or hot tub?
Do you use a 60 amp electrical service? (How do I find out?)
Do you use a 100 amp electrical service? (How do I find out?)
Do you need more outlets?
Did your Homeowners Insurance require that you make an upgrade?
Do you use multiple extension cords?
Do your appliances run on less than full power?
Do you require a 240v circuit?
Do you need to add a sub panel?
Do you need a power surge arrestor?
Are your outlets two pronged (non-grounded)?
Is a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) required?
