If your home still has a fuse box rather than a circuit breaker panel, then the time to upgrade is now. Fuses can no longer handle the electrical demands of modern homes, and putting in larger and larger fuses will create a potentially large fire hazard.

As for homes that already have an electrical panel that uses circuit breakers, we recommend you replace the panel if you notice a number of different signs that it's in trouble:

• Constantly tripping breakers
• Charring marks on the breakers
• Breakers are hot to the touch or the panel is giving off a burning smell

Call for one of our licensed electricians, and they'll help you determine if it's time to upgrade the breaker box with a new one.

This is extremely important: under no circumstances should you tamper with the panel and the breakers in an attempt to repair either. The most you should do is reset breakers when they trip. Otherwise, leave all the work to licensed electricians. Tampering with an electrical panel when you don't know what you're doing can lead to a high voltage shock. It can also create situations that will lead to electrical fires in your house or a loss of electrical power. Our technicians are available 24 hours a day to assist, so don't hesitate to call them when you need help.
