Panel Upgrades
When you need an electrical service panel upgrade to accommodate more branch circuits or replace an outdated electrical service, look no further...
Sierra Electric can help. If you
are concerned about the possible fire and safety hazard of an aging electric
service panel in your home, we are here for you.
With all the new appliances, and technical devices we now have in our homes, we find that older homes might not have sufficient power available to handle the increased demand. 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.
Panel Inspection
When you plugged in your new refrigerator, cranked up the air conditioner, or
turned on the light to read this report, you probably didn't give a lot of
thought to the wires carrying the electricity.
Few people do. After all, your home's electrical system is hidden in the walls.
Most homeowners generally know so little about electricity that they tend to
take potential problems too lightly or overlook them altogether.
But you need to pay attention to your home wiring no matter when your home was
built or where you live, especially if you live in an older home. Thirty-nine
thousand house fires and 350 deaths each year in the U.S. are caused by faulty
home wiring and other electrical equipment, such as extension cords, lighting,
and plugs, according to the National Fire Protection Association.
If you are experiencing flickering lights, hot outlets, or other warning signs,
disconnect appliances on overworked circuits. Then hire a
qualified, licensed electrician to
inspect your home and make repairs.
