Replace for Safety, Upgrade for Capacity
Many homes, especially those over 50 years old, have obsolete or unsafe electric panels. These systems are crucial to the delivery of power throughout your home – but several older brands are known to be a fire-risk and should be replaced as soon as possible. Other panels simply lack the capacity to keep up with ever-increasing demands.
If your home has an electric panel made by Federal Pacific, Zinco orWestinghouse, or if your panel has fuses instead of breakers, you should have it inspected.
Many panels installed from the 1950s through the 1980s have been found to short circuit or over current, presenting a very serious risk of fire.
Pampas Power LLC will come to your home and perform an inspection. If needed, we will be able to replace your old panel with a safe, modern electric panel –typically in a single day. The procedure includes testing to ensure that the new panel works correctly.
In some cases, we can simply upgrade your existing panel to better handle the demands placed upon it by modern life.
