Expert Repair
Electrical panels generally have a life span of 20 to 30 years. At that point, you may see the panel show signs that it’s time to repair or replace the system. These signs include:
- Shocks: A properly functioning electrical system should never cause shocks when touching components, turning lights off or on, or plugging or unplugging electrical appliances. If this does happen, schedule an electrician immediately.
- Burnt switches and outlets: There should never be any evidence of excessive heat, such as smoke, sparks, flames (even small ones), or burn residue associated with your switches or outlets. Such signs could indicate your electrical panel isn’t working correctly.
- Flickering lights: If new bulbs or lights flicker, buzz, or dim, this could mean a problem with the electrical panel.
- Tripping breakers: Circuit breakers that trip regularly are a good indication there may be a problem with the electrical panel. Get it checked out soon.

Electrical Panel FAQs
Why does my electrical panel smell like smoke?
This could mean wires within the panel may have shorted or some associated component is melting. Either way, this could mean there has already been or still be an electrical fire. Take that possibility seriously and have a professional assess the panel immediately.
How long does it take to replace electrical panels?
In most cases, replacing an electrical panel can take anywhere from three to eight hours. Certain factors can affect this estimate, such as the complexity of your home’s electrical system, the number of electricians working on the project, and the specific electrical panels being removed and installed.
