Here are some common signs you need an Electrical Panel Upgrade:

• Flickering Lights

• Frequent Breaker Trips
  If you’re constantly resetting breakers, your electrical panel may be too old or underpowered. Our electricians can evaluate whether a simple upgrade or a full replacement is needed.

• Failing or Non-Functional Outlets
  Do you have outlets in your home that don’t work—or worse, give off a burning smell or small shock when touched? These are serious red flags that your electrical panel may be deteriorating. Over time, the wires connecting your panel to your outlets can fray, weakening the connection and creating dangerous conditions

• Planning a Remodel or Installing New Appliances
  Adding a new HVAC unit, upgrading your kitchen, or doing a full remodel? Your existing electrical panel may not be equipped to handle the increased load. Even if your panel has unused breaker spaces, that doesn’t mean it can safely power modern, high-demand appliances.
  
  Before your remodel begins, schedule a panel inspection with Raptor Electrical Services. We’ll assess your current system and determine whether a panel upgrade is necessary to meet code and support your renovation plans.

Preventive electrical panel upgrade save time, money, and stress. Here’s when it makes sense to replace your panel—even if it’s still working:

•  Your Home is Over 20 Years Old
  Older panels weren’t built for today’s technology. If your home was built before the 2000s and hasn’t had a panel upgrade, you’re likely overdue. From smart devices to high-powered appliances, modern homes need more power—and older panels simply can’t keep up.

• Frequent Repairs
  If you're constantly calling an electrician to fix panel-related issues, it’s more cost-effective to invest in a new, efficient panel that won’t break down. Raptor Electrical Services offers affordable upgrades that save money over time.

•  Heavy Use of Power Strips
  Using power strips in every room? That’s a sign your current panel doesn’t provide enough outlets or capacity. Overloading the system with power strips can lead to overheating and premature panel failure.
