Sprague Goodman Electric | Emergency Electricians in Westbury, NY

An overloaded panel is a common issue in Westbury homes, often caused by adding modern appliances to older systems. Our comprehensive electrical inspection involves testing the panel's load capacity, checking for signs of overheating like discoloration or a burning smell, and evaluating the circuit balance. We identify if your current usage exceeds the panel's safe rating and provide a clear report with recommendations, which may include a panel upgrade or adding dedicated circuits to eliminate the fire risk and nuisance tripping.

First, for safety, turn off the power to that circuit at the breaker. Then, call a professional.
