Important Signs You May Need Electric Panel Replacement
Your fuse box supplies electrical current to the outlets in your home, but just because you flip a switch and a light comes on, or the coffee machine works when it’s plugged in doesn’t mean that your electrical panel doesn’t need attention. Fuse boxes don’t last forever, and they need to be replaced about every 20 or 30 years. All homeowners should be aware of common signs that the electric panel in their home may need to be inspected by a licensed electrician, such as:
- Circuit breakers that constantly trip: If electrical circuits are overloaded or there is an electrical fault, it will cause your circuit breaker to trip. If this happens repeatedly, it could be the sign of problems with the electrical panel or wiring, or there’s a bad breaker.
- Dimming or flickering lights: Do you notice lights in your home dimming or flickering? These could be signs of an underpowered electrical panel or bad wiring.
- Burn spots in the panel: Old wiring with damaged insulation can generate high amounts of heat that leave burn marks in the electrical panel and should be inspected by an electrician.
- Signs of rust: Any sign of rust in the fuse box isn’t good because it means that moisture has made its way into the electrical panel. Water mixing with electricity is hazardous. A rusty electrical panel should be replaced, and the source of the moisture needs to be addressed.
- Underpowered electrical panels: Early electric panels had a power rating of 60 amps of power. Eventually, panels increased to support 100 amps. But today, electrical panels that support 200 amps of power is the standard in homes. If you live in an older house with a circuit breaker box that supports less than 200 amps of power, this may be insufficient and should be replaced.
