As homes become more energy-efficient and technologically advanced, your electrical system must keep up with modern demands. Many homeowners overlook their electric panels, yet these essential systems are the backbone of a safe and functional home. If you’re experiencing electrical issues, it may be time to consider an electric panel upgrade. At Energized Electric LLC, we specialize in electric panel swaps to ensure your home is safe, up-to-code, and ready for the future.
What Is an Electric Panel and Why Does It Matter?
Your electric panel, also known as a breaker box or service panel, distributes electricity throughout your home. It protects your electrical system by shutting off power during overloads or faults, preventing damage or fire hazards. Over time, outdated panels can become unsafe, especially if you’re adding new appliances, charging electric vehicles, or renovating your home.
Signs you might need an electric panel upgrade include:
- Frequent tripped breakers
- Flickering or dimming lights
- Buzzing sounds or burning smells near the panel
- Use of extension cords due to insufficient outlets
- Your panel is more than 20-30 years old
If any of these issues sound familiar, it’s time to schedule a professional inspection.
Benefits of Upgrading
- Improved Safety Outdated panels, such as Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels, are known to fail safety standards and may cause fire hazards. Modern panels are designed with advanced safety features to protect your home and family.
- Meet Modern Electrical Demands With the increasing use of electronics, smart devices, and energy-heavy appliances, older panels may not provide sufficient power. An upgrade ensures your system can handle today’s energy requirements without constant overloads.
- Increased Home Value A new electric panel adds value to your home by demonstrating it is up-to-date and safe. This can be a significant selling point for potential buyers.
- Accommodate Home Upgrades Planning a kitchen remodel, adding a hot tub, or installing solar panels? These projects often require additional electrical capacity. Upgrading your panel gives you the power you need.
- Support for Electric Vehicles (EVs) If you’re switching to an electric vehicle, you’ll need a charging station. Many EV chargers require updated electrical systems to operate efficiently.
