Signs Your Panel
Needs to Be Replaced

⚠️ Warning: Outdated Panels Are a Risk

A 100-amp or smaller panel was designed for homes built decades ago — before EV chargers, modern HVAC systems, and high-draw appliances. Running today's electrical load through an undersized panel causes overheating, frequent trips, and in serious cases, fire hazards. If your panel is more than 25 years old, it's worth having it evaluated.

Signs You Need an Upgrade

  • Breakers trip frequently or won't reset
  • Lights flicker or dim when appliances run
  • Panel feels warm or has a burning smell
  • You're adding an EV charger, hot tub, or AC
  • Your panel is 100-amp or smaller
  • You have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel
  • You're buying or selling your home
  • Your insurance company flagged the panel
