If you’re having electrical issues and the problem isn’t with your power company, you might need electrical panel upgrades in Kent, WA. Outdated panels struggle to handle modern appliances and could overheat if you continue to draw energy.
When the power company sends electricity to your house, the panel distributes it to your appliances. If a circuit overloads, the panel shuts it off to prevent a fire. Old electrical panels often shut off more frequently because they can’t keep up with demand.
Here are some signs that you need a panel upgrade:
Dimming or flickering lights
Frequent circuit breaker trips
Burning odors or overheating
Outdated panel
Sudden power surges
Strange noises
Inability to handle more appliances
Electrical panel upgrades allow you to invest in new appliances with advanced features. You can buy a bigger dryer, replace a broken water heater, or upgrade to a smart fridge without worrying about the lights shutting off. Likewise, you’ll be able to install more outlets, reducing the need for extension cords that cause tripping hazards.
Plugging too many devices into extension cords could also overwhelm the system. More outlets add safety and convenience to your home. New panels also increase your property value. Buyers see a house with a modern system that can handle their appliances. Buyers often make lower offers with an outdated panel because they will have to upgrade the system themselves.
If you want to upgrade to solar panels, ask Fuller Electric about a panel upgrade first. You’ll probably need a 200-amp panel before you convert. Afterward, you can install solar panels and enjoy the savings and a reduced environmental footprint.
Similarly, old homes usually need electrical panel upgrades before renovations. Redoing your kitchen or bathroom often involves buying new appliances that an outdated system can’t handle. If you’re finishing a basement or another unused area, you’re adding a new power draw to your house.
