Electric Panel Repair in Sarasota, Manatee, and Charlotte County
The average American home currently consumes approximately 25% more electricity than homes 40 years ago. This is primarily due to the increased number of electronics and appliances in the average home. If your home was built before the 1990’s the increase in electrical demand may be unsafely overloading your electrical panel. This electrical overload can lead to to serious malfunctions, damage, and risk of fire and you may be in need of an electric panel repair.
Signs You May Need an Electric Panel Repair:
- Fuses routinely blow
- Your electrical panel provides less than 200 amps
- A breaker trips during the use of multiple small or large appliances simultaneously
- Use of multiple extension cords due to insufficient outlets
- Frequently flickering lights
The Dangers of a Faulty Panel
A damaged, or overloaded electrical panel is a fire hazard. Each electrical circuit is protected by a circuit breaker. However, in older homes, electric panels may use screw-in fuses rather than breakers. When a circuit is overloaded or shorts out, breakers are designed to turn off, cutting off the electrical current to the affected circuit. This prevents overheating, fire and potential shock. Older electrical panels are not equipped to respond in the same way, increasing the risk of shock and fire. The risks associated with an outdated electrical panel are resolved with an electrical panel repair or upgrade.
