Does My Electrical Panel Need To Be Replaced?
Determining whether your electrical panel needs to be replaced depends on several factors, including the age of the panel, its condition, and any signs of wear or malfunction. Here are some common indicators that may suggest it's time to replace your electrical panel:
- Age: Electrical panels over 20-30 years old may be outdated and need replacement.
- Overheating: Signs like burnt smells, discoloration, or hot spots indicate potential issues.
- Flickering lights or frequent tripping: These can suggest overloading or panel failure.
- Insufficient capacity: If you're adding new appliances, your panel may not handle the load.
- Safety concerns: Panels with known issues like FPE or Zinsco pose fire risks.
- Lack of proper grounding: Inadequate grounding can compromise safety.
- Code compliance: Panels should meet current standards to avoid legal issues.
Ultimately, it's best to consult with a qualified electrician to assess the condition of your electrical panel and determine whether replacement is necessary. They can perform a thorough inspection, identify any potential issues, and recommend the best course of action to ensure the safety and functionality of your electrical system.
New Appliance Or Need More Power?
If you’re installing a major electrical appliance, like an electric wall oven, a microwave oven, a double-wide refrigerator, an electric fireplace, or central air-conditioning, you’d better think about the additional power it may need.
While a salesman or installer might tell you that your system can handle the load, you’ll need an electrician to look at your circuitry to make sure you don’t experience a tripped breaker.

Signs You Need Generator Repair
- It's having a hard time starting up - One of the worst ways to find out you need generator repair is that it can't start when you need it to. Because of this, it's a good idea to get your generator checked once or twice a year so that it doesn't let you down when you're out of power.
- Flickering lights or electrical appliance failure - If you're running your home's electrical grid off your backup generator, one of the first signs it's in need of repair is if your lights are flickering or the electrical appliances aren't as reliable as usual.
- Leaks - If there are leaks of any kind near or around your generator, call in our Muskegon generator repair team as liquids and electricity are a dangerous combination. The leak can be water or oil, but it's best to leave these situations to the experts.
- New sounds that are off - All back up generators make some noise in generating your power. But if you notice anything new that's louder than usual then give us a call to inspect your back up generator.
- Signs of wear and tear - It's good practice to inspect your generator at least once every few months during the day when you have plenty of natural sunlight. Feel free to take off the lid and inspect the innards so that you can see that everything is in working order for when your power goes out.
