    RESIDENTIAL ELECTRICAL PANEL & CIRCUIT BREAKER SERVICE

    Electrical Panel Services in the Tyler and Longview, TX Area

    From the moment it enters your home via the electrical grid, power is trying to course through your home as fast as possible. There is only so much current that the wiring in your Tyler and Longview, TX home can handle at any one time and only so much power draw. That’s part of why your home is separated into circuits. At Dynamic Electricians, we know electrical panels. From installation to repair, we’ll take care of any electrical panel service you need, including:

    • Installation and Upgrades
    • Repairs
    • Breaker Replacement
    • Fuse Box Upgrades
    • GFCI and AFCI Installations
    • Whole-Home Surge Protection

    Device and Circuit Safety

    Your circuit breaker keeps your device safe. As the number of devices or appliances you place on a circuit increases, so does the load placed on your electrical system. As the current increases to keep up with this demand, your wires will begin to heat up. Depending on the rating of your connections, eventually this heating will cause your wires to draw more power than the system can handle, entering a dangerous runaway state. It’s before this point that your circuit breaker will trip.

    Your electrical panel is a safety device because it helps control just how heavy a load is on each circuit at a time. Whether you’re using a fuse box or more modern breakers, the goal is the same: cut off power when the demand exceeds the rating for your system.

    What Appliances Require Dedicated Circuits?

    Many of your appliances are what we term “high-load devices.” This simply means that they use more power than standard devices like computers or televisions. These high-load devices can put a heavy strain on your home’s electrical system. Some examples of appliances that require a dedicated circuit include:

    • Refrigerator
    • Electric Ranges and Ovens
    • Dishwashers
    • Microwaves
    • Washing Machines
    • Air Conditioners
    • Water Heaters
    • Hot Tubs and Spas
    • Sump Pumps

    A larger load on a system means an increase in the current draw on a single electrical circuit. You can tell that you’re straining or exceeding a circuit’s rating because the lights in a room will dim or you’ll trip a breaker when certain devices are being used.

    Ensuring that these appliances are connected to dedicated circuits can help prevent electrical overloads and improve safety in your home.

    While you could simply move some of those devices to a different circuit, eventually you’ll run out of available outlets. At this point you should consider installing a new electrical circuit, what we call a dedicated circuit.

    Signs Of an Overloaded Circuit in Your Electrical Panel

    While circuit breakers are designed to trip for your protection, they shouldn’t be tripping constantly. If yours does, then it’s a sign of a bigger problem within your electrical panel that needs expert guidance. Here are some signs that you may be dealing with an overloaded circuit:

    • Your Circuit Breaker is Constantly Tripping: If the trip happens whenever a device such as a microwave oven or a space heater is on, then you’re likely overloading the circuit and should plug the appliance into a different outlet.
    • Your Wiring is Damaged: Frayed or exposed wiring can occur due to overheating caused by overloaded circuits.
    • You Have a Broken Circuit Breaker: A broken or faulty circuit breaker may fail to reset, indicating that it cannot handle the load or that there’s a more serious underlying issue.
    • An Incorrect Installation: If you’ve recently had electrical service or had a new line installed, it could be that the line was installed incorrectly and is causing a trip. A broken or faulty circuit breaker may fail to reset, indicating that it cannot handle the load or that there’s a more serious underlying issue.

    You may also consider upgrading your existing fuse box to a more modern circuit breaker. Fuse boxes do their job wonderfully, but they require replacement fuses to be on hand. Many fuses can also be hard to identify if neither the box nor the old fuse were labelled properly. The wrong fuse in a circuit can cause serious damage, and may start dangerous house fires. Upgrading to a modern circuit breaker helps to prevent this.
