Circuit Breaker Panels

As a homeowner, you should be familiar with the location of your circuit breaker panel. In most homes, the circuit breaker box is located in the laundry area or basement. Sometimes the circuit breaker box is located on the outside of the home. In larger homes, there may be multiple circuit breaker panels, including the main panel and additional sub-panels. The circuit breaker panel box is usually gray in color and is mounted on a wall. If you open the panel doors, you will see several different circuit breakers. Each of these breakers controls the power input and output of each appliance in your home. The main breaker controls power to the entire home, and will shut off power to the entire home.
A circuit breaker box houses the main and individual circuits for appliances in your home. Circuits serve to protect the home in the case of current overload. If an overload of power occurs, because of faulty electrical wiring or a multitude of other reasons, the breaker will trip causing power to be shut off, either to individual appliances or to the entire house.
Most homeowners have experienced a tripped circuit breaker at one time or another. If you are unable to get power to a particular appliance, chances are the breaker was tripped. Because this is common, especially in older homes, it is important to label each circuit in the circuit breaker panel. To label the circuits, you can check by switching off each circuit to determine what power source each is linked to. Labeling each circuit in the circuit breaker box can make it much easier and less frustrating in the future.

LICENSED ELECTRICIAN: Electrical and Lighting Installations.

  I have been in the electrical and lighting trades now for over 20 years.  Now that I have started my own business, and getting very busy,  I am starting to notice what a lack of qualified electrical contractors we have.  I have gone into countless homes and commercial properties and seen work that is not safe and just plain unprofessional.  People need to know that if you are going to hire a electrician for commercial or residential, they need to be insured, licensed, and bonded.  Also take the time to do a little research on that company.  Now a days it seems like every contractor is out there to rip you off.  Times are hard but this is no reason to do poor workmanship and over charge a customer.  If you have had poor experiences with other electrical contractors, give us a call.  We stand by our work!  Rated "A" by the BBB.  Charge fair prices.  We are Licensed - Insured - Trusted - Referred.  We are the real deal. 
Customer satisfaction is our priority!
