What Are Circuit Breakers?

Circuit breakers are electrical switches that are designed to protect electrical circuits from being damaged by an overcurrent, overload, or short circuit. The function of these devices is to interrupt current flow after protective relays detect a fault.

Our Comprehensive Circuit Breaker Services

It’s not uncommon for Colorado homeowners to have outdated circuit panels that need to be upgraded when purchasing a new home. Old circuit panels might only hold 90 amps, but the average home requires at least 100 amps, and panels are available with more than 200 amps. Installing a new circuit breaker panel is not always necessary, but our team will help you determine your best option. Check out some of the services we provide related to home circuit breakers:

New Circuit Breaker Panels: Our certified electricians start with a home inspection to determine your electrical needs. We will help you select from your circuit breaker options, including sizes, units for indoors and outdoors, and more.

Electrical Service Upgrades: If you choose to upgrade to a larger electrical service flow, our team will install a different power supply or meter upgrade. Serious problems can occur if your panel has too much or too little electricity, so we’ll ensure you have what you need.

Repairing Existing Wiring or Installing New Wiring: Replacing an electric circuit panel will likely require us to repair your existing wiring or install new wiring.
