Stopping Domestic Electrical Hazards in Fort Lauderdale

Electrical issues in Fort Lauderdale are often exacerbated by Broward County's high humidity and salt-air environment. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to property damage or safety hazards.

Federal Pacific or Zinsco Panel

These recalled brands have documented failure rates causing fires. Insurance companies increasingly require their replacement.

Storm or Water Damage

Panels exposed to flooding or severe weather may have internal damage even if they appear functional. Replacement is often necessary.

Corrosion and Deterioration

Salt air and humidity deteriorate electrical equipment. Heavily corroded panels should be replaced for safety and reliability.

Burning Smell or Scorch Marks

Evidence of overheating in your panel indicates potential fire hazard. Replacement addresses the underlying problem.

Breakers Won't Stay Reset

Breakers that trip immediately or won't stay on may indicate panel problems beyond just the breaker itself.

Insurance Requirement

Your insurer may require panel replacement for policy renewal or after claims. We provide the compliant installation they require.

Service Panel Replacement Benefits for Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Safety

Replace dangerous or deteriorated panels with modern, safe equipment. Eliminate fire hazards from recalled or failing panels.

Reliability

New panels with quality breakers provide reliable power distribution. No more worrying about panel problems.

Many insurers require removal of Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels. New panel satisfies their requirements.

Modern Features

New panels can include AFCI/GFCI breakers, whole-home surge protection, and space for future circuit additions.

Common Service Panel Replacement Questions from Fort Lauderdale Homeowners

Federal Pacific (FPE/Stab-Lok) and Zinsco breakers have documented failure rates—they don't trip when they should, leading to overheating and fires. The problem is the breaker design, not just age. These panels should be replaced regardless of condition.
Look for 'Federal Pacific,' 'FPE,' 'Stab-Lok,' 'Zinsco,' or 'Sylvania Zinsco' on the panel door or breakers. Not sure? Send us a photo and we'll identify it. These brands are easily recognizable to electricians.
Insurance typically doesn't cover replacement of functioning but hazardous panels—that's maintenance, not damage. However, if your insurer requires replacement for continued coverage, the alternative is losing insurance. The cost of replacement versus uninsured status makes the decision clear.
Typically one full day for direct replacement (same size panel). Power is off for most of that time—usually 6-10 hours. We coordinate to minimize disruption and complete work efficiently.
If your panel is being replaced anyway, upgrading from 100A to 200A adds relatively little to the project (vs. separate upgrade later). Consider future needs—EV charging, additions, modern electrical loads. We can advise whether upgrade makes sense.
Panel replacement includes new breakers. Old breakers don't fit new panels, and you wouldn't want problematic breakers in a new panel anyway. All new equipment provides the fresh start replacement is meant to achieve.
