How do I know if my panel needs an upgrade?

Signs that your electric panel may need upgrading include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering or insufficient power in outlets, a panel that looks outdated or is physically damaged, or remodeling projects that add new electrical loads. If your home was built several decades ago, it may not meet modern requirements, so having it inspected is advisable.

Moreover, a modern panel complies with current electrical codes, ensuring peace of mind.

How long does an electric panel upgrade typically take?

The duration of an electric panel upgrade can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the work. In most cases, an upgrade can be completed within one to two days. A detailed assessment during an initial inspection can provide a more accurate timeline based on your specific needs and the condition of your current system.

Are permits required for an electrical panel upgrade in Washburn?

Yes, permits are generally required for electrical panel upgrades to ensure all work complies with local codes and safety regulations. In Washburn, a licensed electrician will typically handle the permitting process as part of the upgrade, ensuring that both your home and the new installation adhere to municipal standards.

How can I get an estimate for an electric panel upgrade for my home?

To receive an accurate estimate, contact a licensed local electrician who can assess your current electrical system and discuss your specific requirements. Most electricians offer a free consultation or inspection, during which they will review your needs and provide detailed pricing and a timeline for the upgrade. This initial assessment helps you understand the scope of the project and make informed decisions.

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.

David Nicholson did an amazing job with the panel upgrade at our home. He spent hours here doing the job efficiently. We can now rest easier in our home knowing that there is no longer the fire hazard due to have out of date electrical panel. Thanks for such hard work. Also, want to give thanks for Jesse spending hours here walking me through the process and managing his staff and assigning the correct worker to jobs. Jesse is a hard worker and great electrician. Thank you both for the hard worker. Both employees are assets to the company.
