Electrical Panel & Breaker Upgrades
Your panel is the heart of your home’s electrical system; when it’s undersized or outdated, everything downstream suffers. Lights dim, breakers trip, and high-demand appliances struggle—or worse, overheated bus bars become a fire risk. Goodkin Electric has replaced hundreds of 100-amp service panels and obsolete fuse boxes across Mohave County, giving homeowners the capacity and peace of mind modern living demands.
Signs you Need an upgrade
- Flickering or Dimming Lights – Especially when the A/C or microwave kicks on.
- Warm Breaker Panel Cover – Heat indicates loose lugs or overloaded circuits.
- Fuse Box or Zinsco / FPE Brand Panel – Known safety hazards that fail today’s insurance inspections.
- Constantly Tripping Breakers – Added circuits for EV chargers, hot tubs, or workshop tools exceed available amperage.
- Lack of Open Spaces – No room for new breakers means no room for future upgrades.
If any of these sound familiar, schedule a no-obligation evaluation with our home electrical services team.
Our Upgrade Process
