Fast, efficient and cost-effective service<\/h3><\/div>
Rebuilding or repairing your circuit breakers can prevent uncalled for downtime and in many cases is more cost-effective than replacing your existing equipment. Our know-how ensures that we can perform top quality repairs, modifications, rebuilding and maintenance on most circuit breakers and larger frame molded case breakers of all brands and vintages.<\/div><\/div>[vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1701871105971{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”771″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”borderRadius”]

Panel Upgrade<\/h3><\/div>
An electric panel upgrade is just what it implies. It is an upgrade from the existing electrical panel. With all the new appliances, and technical devices we now have in, we find that older homes might not have sufficient power available to handle the increased demand.<\/p>\n

Therefore, a “service change” is required. This includes not only an upgrade in your electric panel. But an upgrade in your meter socket and wire size between the meter and panel.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”772″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”borderRadius”]

Warning: Panels To Be Aware Of<\/h3><\/div>
Is your electric panel safe? Many homeowners may unknowingly have unsafe and outdated electrical panels with overheating issues or failed or melting circuit breakers, which can lead to serious hazards such as fires. If you have electrical panels including Zinsco Panels, Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Panels, or Challenger Panels, you may have an unsafe unit that needs to be replaced immediately.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”774″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”borderRadius”]
<\/div>

Panel Swap<\/h3><\/div>
A panel change out is usually required to alleviate a problem with the existing panel. Sometimes a breaker might overheat to the point that the buss bar in a panel gets burned.<\/p>\n

The conductors between the meter and panel may become loose and burn out the main lugs, especially common when aluminum conductors were used.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1701960741849{padding-top: 50px !important;}”]
