Electrical Panel Upgrades On Long Island, NY

Safe, Effective Solutions For Older Homes

As technology has advanced, the need for more advanced electrical panels has grown as well. Modern appliances, such as washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, computers, state-of-the-art lighting, and more, require modern electrical systems that can handle the daily demands of all our appliances and electronics.

Homes built before the 1960s typically have older electrical panels or fuse boxes that can’t keep up with modern electrical needs. If you have an older home, a electrical panel upgrade can help you safely and effectively enjoy all your electrical appliances. 

Universe Home Services offers top-quality electrical panel upgrades on Long Island and surrounding areas. We have over 65 years of industry experience and are well-versed in providing reliable electric solutions for homes of all sizes.

Should You Upgrade Your Electrical Panel?

It may seem like your home is perfectly capable of handling all your electrical needs. You rarely have problems with your electrical panel, so why upgrade it? In reality, an outdated electrical panel or fuse box will probably end up costing you more time, money, and stress than a electrical panel upgrade.

When fuses burn out, they must be individually replaced. In contrast, modern electrical panels are much easier to reset with a simple flip of a switch. You may also want to upgrade a too-small panel.

It’s probably time to upgrade your electrical panel if:

---

• Your home was built before the 1960s.
• Your home still has a fuse box.
• You want to upgrade from a 100-amp panel to a 200-amp panel.
• The electrical panel is warm (a sign of overloading).
• The panel trips often.
• Your lights frequently flicker or dim.
• There’s a burning smell coming from the panel.
• You have to use a lot of power strips to avoid tripped breakers.
• Your appliances don’t run at full capacity.
• You want to upgrade your appliance or add an EV charger to your home.

It’s always best to leave all electrical services, including electrical panel upgrades, to the professionals. Only a trained, certified electrician can safely and effectively upgrade your home’s panel and make sure you can start enjoying all the electrical power you need.
