A breaker may trip because the circuit is overloaded or has a fault. We inspect the problem and determine whether a repair, circuit change or service upgrade fits.

Questions about upgrading electrical service

For Electrical Service Upgrade, can an upgrade support added appliances?

Yes, an upgrade can support added appliances when the new service and main breaker fit the property's demand. GMB Electric assesses the existing supply and your planned equipment before recommending work. A new appliance can also need its own circuit. We'll discuss that need as part of the proposed scope, so you know what the quote covers.

Why might a breaker keep tripping after a panel upgrade?

A circuit fault or overload can still trip a breaker after a panel upgrade. The panel is only part of the electrical system, and a problem can remain in wiring or connected equipment. We'll investigate the affected circuit and discuss the repair it needs. Tell us which equipment was running when the breaker tripped.

When scheduling Electrical Service Upgrade, what should I tell you about a partial power outage?

A partial outage report should identify the affected rooms and any recent breaker trips. Those details help us understand which parts of the property have lost power. Tell us about any appliance changes or unusual panel sounds too. We'll assess the electrical problem and explain whether the work calls for a repair or a broader service change.

During project preparation, is it safe to replace a tripped breaker myself on a standard service call?

No, don't replace a tripped breaker yourself. A trip can point to a fault or overload, and the panel contains electrical parts that can be dangerous to touch. Leave the panel work to us and describe what happened. We'll inspect the issue and discuss the appropriate repair before replacing electrical components.

Which parts of the panel job can change the quote?

The panel's condition and the changes needed for your planned load can change the quote. The scope can also change if the incoming supply needs work. We'll assess the property and explain the proposed work before providing a quote. Share your appliance plans so the scope reflects the power you expect to use.
