Electrical Service and Panel Upgrades
An electric panel upgrade is just what it implies. It is an upgrade from the existing electrical panel. With all the new appliances, and technical devices we now have in our
Chemung County homes, we find that older New York 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.
Many electrical service panel upgrades and new installs require more than basic repair of the panel itself. Meter loops and service entrance cables come in an endless array of options that can quickly overwhelm a homeowner’s decision making.
By first analyzing the nature of your wiring schematics, your overall power consumption, age of the dwelling, and nature and configuration of your appliances and lighting components, our
professional electrical contractors can determine exactly what your electrical service panel needs and what it doesn’t. When necessary, we will add devices such as line conditioners that can stabilize irregular current in neighborhoods prone to brownouts.
PANEL CHANGE OUT
A panel change out is usually required to alleviate a
problem with the existing panel. (1)Sometimes a
breaker (s) might overheat to the point that the buss bar
in a panel gets burned. (2)The conductors between the
meter and panel may become loose and burn out the main
lugs, especially common when aluminum conductors were
used.
