FAQ

Common Questions

How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?

Common signs include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, a panel that feels warm to the touch, or a home built before 1990 that hasn't been upgraded. We offer free assessments.

How long does a panel upgrade take?

Most panel upgrades are completed in one day. Your power will be off for a portion of that time — typically 4–6 hours.

Is my Federal Pacific panel dangerous?

Federal Pacific (Stab-Lok) and Zinsco panels are known to have safety issues and are recommended for replacement. We can assess yours and provide a quote.
