Electrical Panel Upgrades and Repairs by American Electric Company: Ensuring Your Home's Safety and Efficiency
Your home’s electrical panel is the heart of your electrical system. It distributes power throughout your home and ensures everything runs smoothly.

If your home is experiencing frequent tripped breakers, flickering lights, or power surges, it may be time for an electrical panel upgrade or repair.

Why You Might Need an Electrical Panel Upgrade or Repair
Frequent Breaker Tripping: If your circuit breakers are constantly tripping, it could be a sign that your panel is overloaded or malfunctioning. This is a serious safety concern, as it could lead to electrical fires.
Outdated Panels: Older electrical panels, particularly those installed before the 1970s, may not be able to handle the electrical demands of modern appliances and technology. Upgrading your panel ensures it meets current safety standards and can handle the load of modern-day electronics.
Power Surges: If you're experiencing frequent power surges, it could indicate that your panel is not effectively regulating electricity flow. This can damage electronics and appliances and pose a potential risk.
Renovations or Additions: If you’re remodeling your home or adding new appliances, your existing electrical panel may not have the capacity to support these changes. Upgrading your panel will provide the necessary power and prevent overloading.
Safety Hazards: Outdated panels or faulty wiring can be a fire hazard. If your electrical panel is showing signs of rust, burn marks, or exposed wires, it’s time for a professional inspection and potential repair or replacement.
