ELECTRICAL SERVICE PANEL UPGRADES
With the increase on our use of technology, so does our need for more power for electrical devices. The electrical demands of a building increase over time as well and can be easily overlooked. Without adjusting for the new usage, an electrical panel’s capacity may be overloaded causing outages. Even though fuses are designed to prevent overloading, they are limited in their power to a specific set of outlets. Many times, the older the breakers the more power they attempt to hold which could cause electrical overload which could lead to a fire.
Over time, electrical panels are worn down due to corrosion and other factors. A common problem is lights flickering or plugs that work sporadically. This could be caused due to an old panel with bad or burnt connection points or even the wiring in the structure could be deteriorating. These are all potential dangers and you could be faced with a major unplanned expense for repairs. Not to mention the risk of a fire that can cause severe damage.
Call one of our experts at Forbes Electrical Company today to schedule an appointment to discuss upgrading your electrical panel. We are here to work for you, save you money, and have safer structures.
