Frequently Asked Electrical Panel Service Questions
What Is An Electrical Panel?
An electrical panel, also known as a fuse box or a breaker box, depending on the type of system you have, serves as the control center for all electrical components in your home. It is a metal box installed on the wall, often in a discreet location, such as a hallway, garage, or basement. Most modern homes use circuit breakers rather than fuses inside the panel to switch power on and off to individual circuits throughout your home. There should also be a switch that controls all of the power to your home. So, you can understand why the electrical panel is so important! This is where new circuits are added or wired, as well as the source of electricity for your entire home. If the electrical panel doesn’t work, significant problems can occur, like electrical fires in the walls. If you suspect an issue with your electrical panel, contact us immediately for repair in Tucson, AZ, and the surrounding areas.
Why Electrical Panels Need Upgrades Or Replacements
There are several different reasons why you might need an electrical panel upgrade in Tucson or the surrounding areas. Let’s walk through some of the most common ones.
Old Age:
When an electrical panel reaches about 25 years old, it’s time to get it replaced. This means if your home was first built in the late 1990s or early 2000s, you should start thinking about a panel upgrade if you haven’t gotten one already. Make sure you know how old the panel is when you move into a new home, so you can be sure you understand when you’ll need to replace it.
Not Enough Capacity:
An electrical panel upgrade may be required if your current one can no longer handle the amount of power you use on a regular basis. You may notice your circuit breakers trip frequently or your energy bills have climbed in recent months. This could happen after you add new appliances or purchase new electronics that require constant charging or electricity use. Older houses, in particular, may have electrical panels that cannot handle your usage. The 1970s were an extremely popular time for new home construction in Tucson, and if you haven’t re-evaluated your electrical panel capacity since then, you should certainly do so now.
Overloaded Circuits:
Overloaded circuits are a recipe for electrical fires. If you’ve added new circuits or wiring to your electrical panel yourself to accommodate new additions to your home, you may run into problems down the road. This is why it’s so important to work with a professional electrician, rather than taking things into your own hands.
What Signs Indicate An Electrical Panel Needs Repair
When it’s possible, we will offer electrical panel repair in Tucson, rather than a complete replacement. This will reduce your costs and enable you to continue using your panel for the remainder of its predicted lifespan. If you notice any of the following, reach out to us right away, so we can provide you with swift repair or replacement:
- Sparking or burnt outlets
- A warm or hot electrical panel
- Strange humming or buzzing noises near the panel
- A burning smell
- Dimming or flickering lights
- Frequently tripped circuit breakers
Our primary goal is to ensure your safety during electrical panel services. Note that we also serve businesses and are happy to evaluate commercial panels if something is going wrong on your commercial property, whether it’s an apartment complex or a traditional office building.
What’s involved in electrical panel upgrades?
During an electric panel upgrade, we will replace your existing electrical breakers and other parts with new products that are better able to handle the demands of your property. The breaker may also be replaced, and we’ll usually update the amp service from your utility company. There is also an option to upgrade the wiring in your property, but this is not mandatory during these upgrades. For a detailed explanation of everything involved in your electrical panel upgrade or repair, reach out to us today for your free consultation.
Can I add more circuits to my existing electric panel?
It may be possible to add a new circuit to your existing electrical panel, provided that the equipment has the capacity for this. Some older equipment may not be able to handle additional circuits, but our expert team will assess your existing electrical panel and provide you with appropriate advice on whether new circuits can be added or whether a panel upgrade is needed.
What is the cost of upgrading an electrical panel in Tucson?
The cost to upgrade your electrical panel depends on the capacity and type of panel you require. An average cost could range from $1,000 to $5,000+, depending on the number of amps you’ll need. While it wouldn’t be possible for us to provide a generic price here, we are proud to offer fast, personalized quotes for every project. Volt Vikings will visit your property for a free assessment, which will give us a clear idea of precisely what we need to provide and what it will cost you: no hassles, no obligations, just a free assessment of what you’ll be needing.
How long does an electrical panel last?
Factors such as the surrounding environment, use and demand, and the type of panel can all impact its lifespan. However, generally speaking, you can expect your new electrical panel to last anywhere between 25 and 40 years, particularly when it is well-maintained and a professional electrician promptly attends to repairs.
Will my electrical panel need regular maintenance?
Yes. To get the best out of your electrical panel and ensure it has a long lifespan, regular maintenance is essential. Having the panel professionally checked and attending to repairs in a timely manner both play a crucial role in maintaining your equipment. You can also perform DIY checks on the physical appearance of your panel periodically to ensure there is no visible damage. However, if you notice any problems, it is essential to contact a professional electrician to handle the repairs as soon as possible.
Do I need to rewire my house to upgrade my electrical panel?
No. While it is possible to include a total rewiring along with an electrical panel upgrade, this is not necessary. In fact, we perform many electrical panel upgrades without the need to rewire the entire property. Furthermore, when only the panel needs to be upgraded, we can often complete the task in as little as four to eight hours, making it a fast and convenient job.
What’s the difference between an electric panel upgrade vs repair?
In some instances, your electrical panel may have minor faults, and this is where our repair service comes in. We’ll fix problems and get your electrical panel working at its best once again. However, an upgrade takes things a step further, providing you with additional power and parts for your old panel as well as bringing your home (and its safety) up to date.
