Breakers are designed to flip, and most homeowners have experience with changing fuses or flipping levers to get the power back on. This safety mechanism prevents an excess amount of power from flowing to any one circuit in your house. While you can simply move power-hungry appliances to different rooms to avoid overloads, you should consider contacting an electrician if your breakers trip regularly.

My Placentia Electrician Hero is a licensed contractor with over a decade of experience working with the community. We are familiar with all kinds of residential unit models and setups, so we can diagnose malfunctions and recommend solutions quickly. We provide a full range of electrical services, including service panel repair, maintenance, and replacement.

 Is it Time to Upgrade Your Service Panel?

Your problems may not have started until you installed that new central air conditioning and heating system, or got a more powerful washer and dryer in the basement. Big upgrades like this often reveal the weakness of an outdated panel, as the additional power demand proves too much for the old unit to handle. Circuits associated with energy-hungry appliances and devices will trip frequently, requiring you to flip the breaker back.

Some homeowners give in to the temptation to replace their fuses with a larger, more powerful variety that won’t break as often. While this may reduce the number of replacements you need, it also inhibits the panel’s built-in safety function. Rather than exposing your home to a fire hazard, consider contacting us to upgrade your panel and modernize wiring or other components as needed.
