When Panel Replacement Is Needed

Some panels should be replaced regardless of age or capacity.

Federal Pacific or Zinsco Panel

These recalled brands have documented failure rates causing fires. Insurance companies increasingly require their replacement.

Storm or Water Damage

Panels exposed to flooding or severe weather may have internal damage even if they appear functional. Replacement is often necessary.

Corrosion and Deterioration

Salt air and humidity deteriorate electrical equipment. Heavily corroded panels should be replaced for safety and reliability.

Burning Smell or Scorch Marks

Evidence of overheating in your panel indicates potential fire hazard. Replacement addresses the underlying problem.

Breakers Won't Stay Reset

Breakers that trip immediately or won't stay on may indicate panel problems beyond just the breaker itself.

Insurance Requirement

Your insurer may require panel replacement for policy renewal or after claims. We provide the compliant installation they require.

Our Panel Replacement Process

1

Panel Assessment

We evaluate your current panel, determine why replacement is needed, and assess whether service size change is also appropriate.

2

Replacement Planning

We select appropriate replacement panel, plan the installation, and explain what to expect during the work.

3

Permit and Coordination

We obtain required permits and coordinate with FPL for any meter work needed during the replacement.

4

Panel Replacement

We remove the old panel, install the new panel, reconnect all circuits, and install modern breakers.

5

Inspection and Documentation

We coordinate inspection, verify passed inspection, and provide documentation for your records.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about our electrical services and availability.

Federal Pacific (FPE/Stab-Lok) and Zinsco breakers have documented failure rates—they don't trip when they should, leading to overheating and fires. The problem is the breaker design, not just age. These panels should be replaced regardless of condition.
Look for 'Federal Pacific,' 'FPE,' 'Stab-Lok,' 'Zinsco,' or 'Sylvania Zinsco' on the panel door or breakers. Not sure? Send us a photo and we'll identify it. These brands are easily recognizable to electricians.
Insurance typically doesn't cover replacement of functioning but hazardous panels—that's maintenance, not damage. However, if your insurer requires replacement for continued coverage, the alternative is losing insurance. The cost of replacement versus uninsured status makes the decision clear.
Typically one full day for direct replacement (same size panel). Power is off for most of that time—usually 6-10 hours. We coordinate to minimize disruption and complete work efficiently.
If your panel is being replaced anyway, upgrading from 100A to 200A adds relatively little to the project (vs. separate upgrade later). Consider future needs—EV charging, additions, modern electrical loads. We can advise whether upgrade makes sense.
Panel replacement includes new breakers. Old breakers don't fit new panels, and you wouldn't want problematic breakers in a new panel anyway. All new equipment provides the fresh start replacement is meant to achieve.
