How long does an electrical panel last?
How long does an electrical panel last? An electrical panel should last 25-40 years, but many homeowners are currently upgrading their electrical panels to increase their electrical capacity as technology in the home increases. You should have an electrician inspect your electrical panel for replacement if: It makes a burning smell. Breakers trip frequently. It still uses fuses (instead of circuit breakers). The panel is hot to the touch. It’s rusty or otherwise visibly damaged. The panel makes a buzzing or hissing noise. Lights flicker or dim when an appliance runs or you plug something in. Another common reason people upgrade their electrical panels is to add more circuits for more outlets and appliances. If you find yourself constantly needing another outlet or are planning to install more appliances soon, an electrical panel upgrade may be in order.
