Tacoma Electrical Panel Repair Professionals
Electrical panel installation is something that requires a lot of forethought to ensure that your electrical system will meet your needs now and going into the future. Unfortunately, your panel box may sometimes malfunction or simply no longer meet your needs.
When this happens, it’s important to phone a professional electrician for many reasons:
Licensed to do the work
Hands-on experience
Knowledge of location codes
Appropriate equipment
Peace of mind
Warranty coverage
One of the more annoying issues you may deal with in regard to your panel box is a circuit breaker that’s constantly tripping. This is most likely the result of trying to power too many electronics and appliances on one circuit. An electrician will be able to properly assess the issue and determine if upgrading your panel box is a necessity to power all your needs.
Another reason you may need to call for service is that your home simply doesn’t have enough power. Homes built before 1980 didn’t usually come with an incoming amperage of over 100. In contrast, modern-day homes come standard with 200-amp power. If your home still has less than 200 amps, it may be time to consider an upgrade. This upgrade will provide more power so you can use more appliances and electronics throughout your home.
Most homes built before 1960 have a fuse box instead of a panel box. The concept is somewhat similar in the fact that each electrical circuit has a fuse that’s responsible for tripping in the event of an overload to provide adequate safety for your home. However, fuses actually blow out when they experience an overload. This requires you to manually replace the fuse every time you have an issue.
Upgrading to a circuit panel box can replace those fuses with circuit breakers that can easily be reset in instances of overloading. Furthermore, when upgrading, you may even want to consider investing in smart circuit breakers. These allow you to monitor their energy usage and alert you in real-time when they trip.
