Is Your Electrical System Ready for Modern Demands?
Understanding the Signs You Need a Service Upgrade
In today’s connected world, our homes rely on more power than ever before. From high-definition televisions and powerful computers to electric vehicle chargers and smart home appliances, the electrical demand on older systems can be overwhelming. If you experience frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights when an appliance turns on, or rely on a maze of extension cords, your electrical service is likely struggling to keep up.
An outdated or undersized electrical system isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a significant safety risk. Overloaded circuits can overheat, leading to damaged wiring and an increased danger of electrical fires. Upgrading your service is a proactive investment in the safety of your home and family, ensuring your system can handle your current and future power needs reliably and without risk.
From Expert Assessment to Flawless Execution
At Timothy Burgess Electrical, we begin every service upgrade with a thorough and detailed assessment of your current system. Our licensed electricians perform a complete load calculation to accurately determine your home’s power requirements. We inspect your existing panel, wiring, and service entrance to identify any deficiencies or safety concerns, providing you with a clear, transparent quote and a comprehensive plan of action.
Once the plan is approved, our team handles every aspect of the installation with precision and care. This includes coordinating with the local utility provider, professionally installing the new, higher-capacity electrical panel, and ensuring all new components meet or exceed the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) standards. We conclude with a full system test and a final walkthrough to guarantee your complete satisfaction and understanding of your new, improved electrical service.
What We Enhance for a Safer, More Powerful Home
The heart of any service upgrade is the main electrical panel, also known as the breaker box. We often replace outdated fuse boxes or low-amperage panels (e.g., 60-amp) with modern 100-amp, 150-amp, or 200-amp panels. This not only provides the power you need but also offers more space for dedicated circuits and allows for the installation of advanced safety devices like Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs).
To deliver more power to the new panel, we typically upgrade the service entrance conductors. These are the main wires that run from the utility’s connection point down to your electrical meter and into the panel. Upgrading this wiring is crucial to safely handle the increased amperage and prevent a dangerous bottleneck in your system.
A critical, and often overlooked, part of a service upgrade is ensuring the entire system is properly grounded and bonded. A robust grounding system is your home’s primary defense against power surges and electrical faults, safely directing excess electricity into the earth. We ensure your grounding and bonding system is fully compliant with modern codes, protecting both your sensitive electronics and your family from electrical shock.
