Replacing A Fuse Box

by

If you are located in Chicago and are looking for an electrician to perform a fuse box replacement then you have come to the right place. One can be installed quickly and safely for an affordable rate. If you are worried about your fuse box or want to upgrade it, take a look below to see what can be done and why it may be best to hire a professional.

When and why you should change your fuse box.

Fuse boxes, like many things to do with all different types of houses, can vary from building to building. Upgrading or replacing a fuse box can help to keep your home safe from electrical fires, short circuits, and power outages. It is important to ensure that you have the safest and best protection when it comes to your home and having a new, modern fuse box in place will help keep your home safe and meet requirements for new, power-hungry appliances within the home.

An old or faulty fuse box can cause many issues in the home from constantly flipping the trip switch when using high energy appliances to failing to protect from power surges and causing electrical fires. It is up to the homeowner to ensure that they have up to date home protection if they wish to be covered by their insurance in the case of fire due to a faulty fuse box.

Who should change a fuse box and how long will it take?

Changing or upgrading a fusebox should only be undertaken by a qualified professional. The process is more complicated than it looks, and a simple mistake could not only cost you your home but also your life. There are thousands of DIY sites detailing how to do it yourself but unless you truly know what you are doing you are putting yourself and your family in danger.

The process of changing a fuse box will take an average of four hours in a modern home. For houses built more than 25 years ago you will most likely need to upgrade your mains power to comply with increased power requirements which will entail installing a larger power cable to your fusebox and takes around 8-10 hours to complete.

So if you are looking for a safe electrical service with dedicated experience in fuse box renewal and house electrics, look no further. Contact us for more information or to get a quote on your fuse box replacement.
