Circuit Breaker and Electrical Panel Repair and Replacement Services

Get Professional Electrician Services for Home Circuit Breakers and Electrical Panels

An electrical panel and a circuit breaker are like the nerve center of your home’s electrical system. These complicated pieces of electrical equipment are essential for safely distributing electricity throughout your home. They protect your wiring and devices from overload by interrupting the flow of electricity when necessary. If you are having a problem with your electricity it might be your panel or your breakers.

Why You Need a Professional to Repair or Replace Your Home’s Circuit Breaker or Electrical Panel

Typically, these parts of your electrical system can last 25-40 years, depending on the environment and usage. However, several issues can arise over time. Because these devices deal with high voltage and complex wiring, they’re not something you’d want to work on yourself. Finding a professional electrician to help is crucial to ensure your safety.

Some typical issues with control panels and breakers are:

• Age and Wear: Over decades, the components inside your panel or breaker can simply wear out. Connections can become loose, breakers can fail to trip, and the overall efficiency of the panel declines.
• Corrosion and Rust: If an electrical panel or circuit breaker is exposed to moisture, either from high humidity or direct exposure to water, corrosion and rust can set in. This compromises the safety and functionality of the system.
• Overloading: With increasing electrical demands from modern appliances and electronics, older panels might struggle to provide sufficient power. Breakers can trip frequently because they can’t handle the load, and wires can overheat.
• Physical Damage: Physical impacts, whether from construction, moving heavy furniture, or other accidents, can damage the panel or breakers. Broken or cracked covers, damaged breakers, or compromised wiring connections can result.
• Electrical Surges: Power surges, often from lightning strikes or issues with the power grid, can damage the breakers and wiring inside the panel. This can lead to malfunctioning circuits and potential fire hazards.
• Not Installed Correctly: If the initial installation wasn’t done correctly, or if repairs were made by someone without the right expertise, the panel can have ongoing issues. This might include mismatched breakers, improper wiring, the wrong size or type of panel and breakers, or incorrect panel ratings.
• Frequent Tripping: If a breaker trips often, it can indicate an underlying issue like an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, or a ground fault. It’s more than just an annoyance—it’s a sign something needs fixing right away.
