A circuit breaker panel is a more current electrical system than the older fuse box. Regardless of which type of electrical panel is currently running your property, SALT’s expert electricians are on the job. We can repair or replace any fuse box or circuit breaker. We also offer annual electrical safety and maintenance plans. Consider investing into the routine care of your property’s core — its electrical panel.
If your home was built before 1980, you may have an old and dangerously outdated electrical panel. This is especially concerning if you have a Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) or Zinsco panel. Check the inside stickers on your electrical panel for any FPE or Zinsco markings. These electrical panels are notorious for failing to trip when they need to. This can cause overcurrents and short circuits that can overheat and cause an electrical fire. If you have an FPE, Zinsco, or outdated panel, contact SALT right away to take a look.
We offer electrical panel maintenance plans and repair and replacement services. As with all appliances and devices, an electrical panel will age and require more frequent repairs over time. You will need to consider the daily electrical demand of your home, the age of your electrical panel, and the quality of its performance when deciding whether to repair or replace.
Based on data by the U.S. Census Bureau, over half of the homes in the United States were built before the 1970s. Unless replaced, electrical panels in most homes are therefore, out of date. They were built to accommodate the daily needs of a building during that time — a time without computers and cellular devices, large appliances or sound systems.
We keep a lot of electrical devices under one roof, and expect them to function on demand. Depending on the age and condition of your current circuit breaker or fuse box, it may be time for a professional safety inspection or repair service.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, with effective annual maintenance by a professional electrician, a circuit breaker panel should have a life expectancy of approximately 3 to 4 decades. The same expected lifespan applies to GFCI, AFCI, and standard breakers. A number of factors contribute to a shortened circuit breaker lifespan, including humidity levels, corrosion, frequent tripping, and certain cleaning elements.
If you’re wondering where to focus your attention when it comes to yearly electrical upkeep, your circuit breaker panel or fuse box tops the list. Nothing can run without it! For your electrical panel safety, repair, and installation, trust SALT.
