The Job of a Home’s Electrical Panel
Your electrical panel, sometimes called a breaker box, is responsible for regulating and distributing power throughout your home. It connects your utility’s power supply to the circuits that power lighting, outlets, appliances, and more. Circuit breakers within the panel protect your home by shutting off electricity when an overload or short occurs, preventing fire risks and equipment damage.
A properly functioning panel is essential for both safety and convenience. As homes add more appliances, electronics, and modern devices, the electrical panel must be able to handle the load. At Jack Lehr Heating Cooling & Electric, we provide expert panel services to ensure your system can keep up with your family’s needs while maintaining the highest standards of safety.
When Should You Replace an Electrical Panel?
Most electrical panels last between 25 and 40 years, but replacement may be necessary sooner if your system can’t handle your household’s electrical demand. Common reasons to replace a panel include upgrading your home, adding new appliances, or experiencing frequent breaker trips. Outdated panels may also lack sufficient capacity or modern safety features, making them a liability.
Upgrading to a new panel not only improves safety but also increases your home’s value and reliability. A modern panel allows you to safely run high-demand appliances like HVAC systems, EV chargers, or advanced kitchen equipment without worry. At Jack Lehr Heating Cooling & Electric, we install high-quality panels that provide dependable power distribution for decades to come.
Watch for Indications Your Panel Needs Professional Repairs
Electrical panels should only ever be serviced by licensed professionals. Attempting DIY repairs is dangerous and can put your home at risk. Warning signs that your panel needs attention include:
- Breakers tripping frequently
- Burning smells or scorch marks near the panel
- Buzzing or crackling sounds
- Flickering lights or outlets losing power
- A panel that feels warm to the touch
