Panel Upgrade & Repair FAQs

1. How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?

If your breakers trip often, lights flicker, outlets feel warm, or your panel is outdated (especially older fuse boxes), it may be time for an upgrade to support your home safely.

2. What’s the difference between a panel repair and a panel upgrade?

A repair addresses specific issues like faulty breakers or loose connections. An upgrade replaces the entire panel to increase capacity, improve safety, or meet modern electrical demands.

3. Are electrical panel upgrades required by code?

Upgrades are required when a panel no longer meets NEC standards, is unsafe, or cannot handle added electrical load from renovations, appliances, or EV chargers.

4. How long does a panel repair or upgrade take?

Most panel repairs can be completed the same day. Full panel upgrades typically take one day, depending on complexity and inspections.

5. Will my power be shut off during the work?

Yes, power will be temporarily shut off for safety. We coordinate the work carefully to minimize downtime and restore power as quickly as possible.

6. Can an upgraded panel increase my home’s value?

Yes. A modern, code-compliant electrical panel improves safety, supports future upgrades, and is often viewed as a valuable improvement during resale.

7. Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. Thomas & Sons manages all required permits and coordinates inspections to ensure your panel upgrade or repair meets local Carolina codes.

8. Can you replace just breakers instead of the whole panel?

In many cases, yes. If the panel itself is in good condition, replacing faulty breakers may be sufficient. We’ll assess and recommend the safest option.

9. Is aluminum wiring or an old panel dangerous?

Older wiring and panels can pose safety risks if not properly maintained or upgraded. We inspect for overheating, corrosion, and loose connections to determine next steps.
