Electrical Panel Upgrade in Steilacoom, Tacoma, Lakewood, Olympia & Puyallup | Good Electric

Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s system. If it’s outdated, overloaded, or unsafe, it’s time for an upgrade. Good Electric provides professional electrical panel changes and upgrades across Steilacoom, Tacoma, Lakewood, Olympia, and Puyallup.

An electrical panel upgrade is crucial for maintaining the safety and functionality of your home’s electrical system. An outdated panel can lead to various issues such as electrical issues, inefficient energy usage, and insufficient power supply for modern appliances. It is essential to consider upgrading if you experience any of the following signs: persistent circuit overloads, flickering lights, or if your panel is more than 20 years old.

 

Why an Electrical Panel Upgrade is Essential for Your Home

– Frequent tripped breakers or flickering lights 
– Adding large appliances or EV chargers 
– Home renovations or additions 
– Fuse panels or outdated wiring 

For instance, if you have recently purchased new appliances like a refrigerator or a washing machine that require more power, your existing panel may struggle to meet these demands. Additionally, homes that are undergoing renovations or expansions often need a larger capacity panel to accommodate increased electrical loads. In these cases, an electrical panel upgrade not only improves safety but also enhances convenience and comfort in your living space.

If your panel is old; Federal Pacific FPE, Zinsco, Challenger, or if it’s simply running out of room, we can help. We’ll tell you the truth about your panel, even if it means we don’t get a sale. 

Understanding the types of panels is also important. Many older homes may still have Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels, which are known for their safety risks. If your home is equipped with these or similar outdated systems, it is imperative to consider an upgrade. We provide comprehensive inspections to ensure your panel is functioning properly and safely.

Whether you live in an older Tacoma neighborhood or a contemporary Lakewood home, we have the expertise to ensure that your electrical system is efficient and up to code.

The new code requires disconnects to be place on the outside of the home, therefore we typically replace the entire electrical service on your house. This helps ensure the system is up to current code and safe by modern standards.
