Paragon Electric is a residential and commercial electrical contractor specializing in electrical panel installation services in Plantation, FL. We encourage homeowners and businesses to consider electrical panel replacement after about 25 years. Panels can last upward of 40 years, but you want to avoid waiting for a panel to fail. Older panels are often a lot less efficient and safe. They may also not be up to the standards of the current National Electrical Code (NEC).

Precision Electrical Panel Installation Services
A common question is: When should a homeowner schedule electrical panel installation services in Plantation? We recommend scheduling an electrical inspection at least every five years. You may want to schedule every several years if you live in an older home. An electrician can then help you determine the right time to upgrade.
The most common time to upgrade is when the existing breaker box no longer meets your needs. Many households are transitioning to electric vehicles and installing EV charging stations. It often surprises those customers that their older panel can’t support the charger and that they need an upgrade. This is a common case with tankless water heaters as well and is even an issue when installing fuel-fired water heaters.
Electrical panel replacement is also an opportunity to add whole-house surge protection. The NEC now requires it, but most homes built before 2020 don’t have it. In addition, many builders will install either a Type 1 or Type 2 surge protector but not both. We recommend installing both for multilayered protection. Type 1 protects the load side of the panel while Type 2 protects the service side.
A new electrical panel also lets you expand the number of circuits your home has. The general rule is to limit each circuit to 10 devices. That includes outlets, switches, lights, and any devices you may plug in. There’s a limit to how many circuits a panel can have. That said, there are options, such as subpanels, if you want to exceed that limit.
There are many benefits to a modern electrical panel replacement:
- Increased property value
- Less risk of electrical fires
- Improved energy efficiency
- Lower electricity and panel repair costs
- Better protection for expensive appliances
