Reach out to ACE’s for all your cooling, heating, plumbing, and electrical needs.
Your home’s electric panel — sometimes referred to as a breaker box — controls and regulates power flow to all your electrical systems. However, over time, panels can become overloaded or break down. Faulty and outdated panels not only present inconveniences like flickering or breaker tripping but also pose serious fire and shock hazards. As such, upgrading or repairing aging electric panels is crucial for safety.
ACE Cooling, Heating, Plumbing, and Electric’s licensed electricians provide complete electrical panel solutions, including repairs, replacements, upgrades, and circuit breaker installation:
Whether a repair or full-on replacement, you can trust the licensed electricians at ACE to provide complete electrical panel upgrades and repairs to protect your home.
Electrical panels endure constant use and naturally degrade over time. Age, damage, or insufficient capacity requires professional panel repairs, replacement, or upgrades to avoid frequent tripping of breakers; power surges damaging appliances, circuits overloaded with modern electric loads, and risk of fire from overheated faulty wiring.
Our team at ACE is equipped to address any electrical panel issues to make your home’s electrical system safer. From faulty component repair to electrical panel upgrades, our expert electricians can handle all of your electrical panel needs. We determine the optimal solutions, whether that be breaker repairs, wiring fixes, upgrades for increased capacity, or new panel installation:
Faulty electrical panels pose serious risks, including the potential for electrical fires, appliance damage, and electrical shocks. Watch for these signs that electrical panel repairs may be needed:
Common signs include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, buzzing sounds, burnt odors near the panel, or outdated panels incapable of handling modern electrical demands.
It is recommended to have your electrical panel inspected by a licensed electrician at least once every 5 to 10 years or more frequently if you notice any signs of electrical issues.
With proper maintenance, an electrical panel can last anywhere from 20 to 30 years. However, factors such as the panel type, environmental conditions, and usage can affect its lifespan.
You can typically tell if an electrical panel is outdated if it has fuses instead of circuit breakers, limited capacity, and the absence of modern safety features such as arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) and ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs).
Depending on the capacity of your current electrical panel, it may be possible to add more circuits. Our electricians can assess your panel’s capacity and determine if an upgrade or replacement is necessary to accommodate additional circuits.
Regularly check for any signs of damage, avoid overloading circuits, keep the area around the panel clear, and never attempt electrical work without proper knowledge and equipment. If you notice any issues, contact the licensed electricians at ACE! We have electricians in the Phoenix metro area and Southern Arizona as well as Northern Arizona.
