STILL NOT SURE?
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel to support new appliances?
If you’re adding high-energy appliances like an electric stove, HVAC system, or EV charger, your existing panel may not have the capacity to handle the increased electrical load. We assess your panel’s amperage to determine if an upgrade is necessary to avoid overloaded circuits or potential fire hazards.
What should I prepare before the electrician arrives for a home electrical inspection or repair?
Ensure that the areas needing service are clear of obstacles, allowing easy access to outlets, electrical panels, or wiring. You should also secure pets and inform the electrician of any known issues, such as flickering lights or tripping breakers, to assist in diagnostics.
How do I know if my home’s wiring needs to be replaced?
Signs of outdated or damaged wiring include flickering lights, frequently tripping breakers, or outlets that feel warm. If your home is older and hasn’t had an electrical upgrade in decades, it may also have aluminum wiring, which should be replaced with modern copper wiring to meet current safety standards.
Can I add more outlets in my home without overloading the system?
Yes, but it depends on your current electrical panel’s capacity and the existing wiring. If your system is near capacity, we may need to add a dedicated circuit or upgrade your panel to safely accommodate new outlets and prevent overloads.
How long does it take to upgrade an electrical panel in a residential home?
The duration depends on the complexity of the upgrade and the size of the panel, but most residential panel upgrades take about 4 to 8 hours. This includes installing the new panel, connecting circuits, and ensuring all systems are functioning correctly.
Are permits required for residential electrical work like panel upgrades or rewiring?
Yes, most local building codes require permits for major electrical work such as panel upgrades or home rewiring. We handle the permit process and schedule inspections to ensure all installations meet local safety regulations and electrical codes.Yes, most local building codes require permits for major electrical work such as panel upgrades or home rewiring.
