Reasons to have your panel inspected
- An electrical inspection of your house helps prevent electrical mishaps due to issues with your electrical system, including malfunctions and fires. Fires are the primary threat faulty electrical components pose.
- It is recommended that you have your electrical panel checked anywhere from 3 to 5 years at a minimum.
- Circuit breakers usually last between 30 and 40 years, but may fluctuate due to several factors such as poor power rating, shifting voltages, and corrosion. This may affect the lifespan of your circuit breaker.
