Electrical Panel Upgrades in Torrance

Does Your Property’s Electrical Panel Support Your Needs?

As commercial and residential electrical demands escalate, older electrical panels and sub-panels can no longer supply the energy people rely on in a modern home. Older homes are simply not equipped to power many digital devices, AC, lighting, and other features. If your circuits can’t handle the load, the breaker will trip. If this occurs often, the breaker may need replacement, or a new upgrade may need to be added. If you are considering an electric vehicle, your electrical panel must be evaluated.

We invite you to contact B&M Electric today to schedule an estimate with our Torrance electrical panel experts. Make sure your panel is ready to perform!

Common Signs that Your Electrical Panel is Overloaded

• Frequently Resetting Circuit Breakers: If you are constantly having to reset circuit breakers, this is a sign that your electrical panel is full. Circuit breakers are designed to trip when they detect an overload of electricity. If your circuit breaker is tripping frequently, it means that there is more electricity flowing through your panel than it can handle.
• Flickering Lights: When an electrical panel is overloaded, the lights may flicker or dim as the electricity flows through the wires. If you notice this happening, you should have your electrical panel evaluated.
• Buzzing Sounds: When there is too much electricity flowing through the wires, they will start to make a buzzing sound. This can be a sign of a fire hazard.
• Hot spots on the Panel: When too much electricity is flowing through your panel, it could start to overheat, which can cause hot spots on the surface of the panel or a burning smell. If you notice these things, you should call a professional right away.
