Yes, this is a common concern in many Goleta homes. Older panels, often 100 amps or less, weren't designed for today's high electrical loads from air conditioners, EV chargers, and multiple devices. This can lead to frequent breaker trips and is a potential fire hazard. Walker's Electrical Repair specializes in panel assessments and upgrades to 200 amps or more, using reliable brands like Siemens. We ensure your system can safely handle modern demands, bringing peace of mind and meeting current electrical codes.
