Electricity is a powerful element, capable of fueling appliances, electronics, and devices, but these are conveniences we enjoy thanks to controlled electricity. A professional electrical system installation makes sure electricity goes where it needs to go and provides a safe pathway for excess electricity. Your electrical panel installation in Round Rock, TX plays a huge role in the electrical system, and it should be regularly inspected and maintained. Further, handle electrical panel repair with urgency. Hire certified electricians from a reputable company like Mr. Electric to make sure small issues don’t spark into a big disaster.
An electrical panel, commonly known as a circuit breaker box, is the hub that distributes electricity throughout a building. It contains various components that ensure safe and efficient electricity distribution. In homes, the electrical panel is typically a gray box on the wall of a utility room, laundry room, or garage. Opening the lid will reveal a few rows or columns of labeled switches. If you have a fuse box, you will notice colored fuses instead.
Before we start, we want to highlight that we are talking about circuit breakers when we say electrical panel. Fuse boxes are also technically an electrical panel, but they are obsolete and not recommend. A fuse box upgrade into a circuit breaker installation can save you a lot of time and convenience. Plus, circuit breakers are considered safer than fuse boxes. A circuit breaker box efficiently and consistently distributes power to various electrical circuits in your home, ensuring a consistent and reliable supply to appliances and devices. When there’s an overload, short circuit, or fault in an electrical circuit, the switch – or circuit breaker – trips to cut off the electrical supply. A well-functioning electrical panel installation shows no signs of physical damage like burn marks, overheating, or corrosion. These are indicators of potential issues. The electrical panel should work silently, and it should be large enough to support the electrical demand by each and every electrical circuit.
It’s probably even more important to be aware of warning flags. When the circuit breaker trips OFF to prevent damage by electrical faults, it cuts off power. So, it’s normal for the lights in a room or the building to go out.
However, if the circuit breakers keep tripping OFF when you turn them back on, then there’s an underlying problem. It's a sign that the electrical load is too much for the system to handle. Dimming or flickering lights is another common indication that there is inadequate power supply or faulty connections.
If your electrical panel is too small, or if it has been physically damaged, then it might be time for an electrical panel replacement. Newer models offer more robust safety features, and a larger unit can meet the demands of your growing household.
