Choosing to Upgrade Your Circuit Breakers
We understand it can be challenging to know the best time to choose a circuit breaker replacement. The most common reasons you should replace your current circuit breakers include the following:
- Overloaded Outlets– When your circuit breakers trip frequently or you are using a significant amount of extension cords, a circuit breaker upgrade will help safely support your
- electronic devices.
- Security Systems– A security system requires that your circuit breaker connects to your electrical system.
- Appliances– When adding additional large appliances to your home, we recommend upgrading your current circuit breaker system.
- Additional Outdoor Electricity– Make sure your home can handle the additional needed electricity for new landscape lighting or a swimming pool.
- Specialty Lighting– We will properly connect your specialty lighting to your circuit breaker, including recessed lighting, accent lighting, and task lighting.
- Ceiling Fans– We offer the ability for you to turn off your ceiling fan and leave on your lights with a flip of the switch, thanks to our upgraded circuitry.
- Emergency Generator Installation– Emergency generators require sub-panels to generate enough power for your home during a blackout.
- Garage or Workshop– Many homeowners need additional outlets to make their garages more functional.
- Home Efficiency Upgrades– We ensure your electrical system can handle the loads of upgrades, including solar water heaters, solar panels, and electric vehicle charging stations.
- Home Entertainment Centers– It’s essential for home entertainment systems to be able to handle multiple plugged-in devices without tripping your circuit breaker.
- Home Office Equipment– If you work from home, you need additional power to support your electrical needs.
- Cable or Satellite TV– We will upgrade your circuits to support additional televisions throughout your home.
