Learn when it may be time to replace your electrical breaker panel
1-Your home is 20+ years old or still has a fuse box.
Whether you recently moved to an older home, you are making upgrades that require additional electrical or you are selling your home, it may be time to inspect the age and state of your breaker panel.
2-You are seeing signs your electrical panel needs an upgrade…
You see rust, broken pieces or an unpleasant odor coming from your panel.
This can be a potential fire hazard and should be inspected as soon as possible for possible replacement or repair.
You need to flip your breakers constantly.
In most cases, a tripping breaker means the panel is doing its job when an area of your home is trying to draw too much power, when this happens resetting your breaker allows for proper flow again but if you find yourself constantly flipping breakers, it may signal a different problem.
