Outdated Electrical Panels: A Hidden Hazard in Your Home
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s power system, distributing electricity safely to every appliance, outlet, and light. But just like an old fence starts to sag over time, your electrical panel ages and wears down, increasing the risk of failure. The difference? A faulty fence is an eyesore—a failing electrical panel is a serious fire hazard.
Here’s why you should consider upgrading:
⚠️ Failing breakers can lead to arcing—and arcing can spark fires.
⚠️ Older panels weren’t designed for today’s high-powered homes. If your home still runs on a 100 or 125-amp panel, it might be struggling to keep up with modern energy demands.
⚠️ Outdated panels may not meet current safety codes, putting your home and family at risk.
