Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s electrical system—distributing power where it’s needed and protecting your home from overloads. But if your panel is outdated or undersized, it could be putting your safety and appliances at risk.
At The Wire Guy Electric, we help Arizona homeowners upgrade their panels to meet today’s power demands—safely and efficiently.
1. You Have a Fuse Box or Outdated Panel
If your home still has a fuse box or an older panel brand like Zinsco or Federal Pacific, it’s time for an upgrade. These panels are outdated and known to pose safety hazards, including fire risk.
2. You’re Adding Major Appliances
Thinking about installing a hot tub, EV charger, or a new HVAC system? These power-hungry additions often require more amperage than your current panel can handle.
3. Your Breakers Keep Tripping
Frequent tripping isn’t just annoying—it’s a sign that your panel is struggling to keep up with demand. An upgrade can provide more capacity and peace of mind.
4. You Notice Flickering Lights or Buzzing Sounds
These subtle signs can indicate overloaded circuits or poor connections, both of which are signs that your electrical system is under stress.
5. Your Home is 30+ Years Old
Many Arizona homes built before the 1990s weren’t designed for today’s energy usage. If you’re using power strips in every room or struggling to keep your breakers from popping, it’s probably time.
A panel upgrade typically means replacing your existing breaker box with a new, higher-capacity panel (usually 200 amps or more). We’ll inspect your current system, handle the permit process, and ensure everything is up to NEC code and utility standards.
Most upgrades take just 1 day, and when you work with The Wire Guy Electric, you’ll get:
Protect your home. Power your future.
Whether you’re upgrading for safety, performance, or peace of mind, The Wire Guy Electric is here to help. Reach out today for a free panel upgrade consultation anywhere in the Phoenix metro area.
