FAQs

What is an electrical panel upgrade?

An electrical panel upgrade involves replacing your existing electrical panel with a new one that can handle more power. This process typically includes the installation of a new panel with updated circuit breakers and other components to meet modern electrical standards and safety codes.

Why might I need to upgrade my electrical panel?

Upgrading your electrical panel may be necessary if your current panel is outdated, if you are experiencing frequent circuit breaker trips, or if you plan to add new electrical appliances or systems that require more power. A newer panel will also enhance safety and improve the overall efficiency of your electrical system.

How can I tell if my electrical panel is outdated?

Signs that your electrical panel is outdated include frequent breaker trips, buzzing or crackling sounds from the panel, the presence of fuses instead of circuit breakers, or an inability to handle the electrical load of modern appliances and electronics. Another indicator is the age of the panel; panels over 20-30 years old often need replacement.

What are the benefits of upgrading my electrical panel?

Upgrading your electrical panel offers several benefits, including increased safety, improved electrical capacity, better energy efficiency, and compliance with current electrical codes. This upgrade allows you to support additional electrical appliances and reduces the risk of electrical fires due to overloaded circuits.

How long does an electrical panel upgrade typically take?

The duration of an electrical panel upgrade can vary depending on the complexity of the installation and the condition of your existing electrical system. Generally, it takes between 4 to 8 hours for a standard upgrade. However, more complex jobs may require additional time.

Can I upgrade my electrical panel myself, or should I hire a professional?

Upgrading an electrical panel is a complex and potentially hazardous task that should only be performed by a licensed electrician. A professional will ensure that the upgrade is done safely, correctly, and in compliance with local building codes. Attempting to do it yourself can lead to serious safety risks and potential legal issues.

I called HEP on Monday to request assistance with our breaker panel. Our main breaker went bad and we only had power in half of the house, no a/c. They were booked up for Monday but got to me first thing this morning, Tuesday, and had the main replaced in no time at all. Kudos go to the service man, Jack Loy for the quality of his work. Thank you HEP for the response time and getting us in the cool once again. As it says on the truck, Happy Wife, Happy Life.
