Electrical Panels
What is the Electrical Panel and How Will it Make Your Electrical System Safer and More Secure?
The Electrical Panel is the Heart
of the
Entire Home's Electrical System
How is this possible? Think of the functions of the most important organ in your body: Your Heart. The heart pumps constantly to keep blood traveling through the body. With the help of the veins and arteries blood is carried out to organs and limbs, therefore keeping you alive!
How is this relevant to your home's electrical panel? The panel is in charge of giving the power to your house. With the help of circuits and wires, electricity is carried out through your home, therefore keeping all your electrical devices, such as televisions, computers, refrigerators, and lights alive!
Is your Electrical Panel Safe and Secure?
Today's homes should have at least 150 amps. Millions of homes today have panels that are more than 40 years old of no more than 60 amps. Outdated panels this old may no longer handle the demands of today's society safely.
Just like your heart needs regular attention to avoid complications, your panel needs regular maintenance to keep it operating properly.
The experts say that today's electrical panels can function properly and protect homes for 30 years or more!

DID YOU KNOW?
More than 50% of all homes may have electrical panels that cannot support their needs!
This is because more than half of the homes today were built in the 1970's, before many of these modern electrical conveniences were invented!
Obsolete electrical panels can be susceptible to malfunctioning, leading to possible shock and fire risk. Many of these obsolete electrical panels have been known to operate properly for years. But if and when they do malfunction, a disaster could occur.
