Electrical Service Upgrades

Updating an Obsolete Circuit Breaker & Service Panels

At Maglio Electric, customer safety is our top priority. Specializing in services that improve energy efficiency and safeguard your family, Maglio Electric technicians offer simple and complex upgrades for aging New Jersey properties and new home additions.

Protecting You From Fire Risk

According to the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI), U.S. electrical fires claim 490 lives each year and cause 1,440 injuries. Whether your home or business contains timeworn breaker panels, is wired improperly, or lacks the power to keep up with today’s electrical demands, antiquated wiring puts you and your property at risk.

Signs You Need an Electrical Upgrade

If your current service panel provides less than 200 amps of electricity, or the following situations sound familiar, call Maglio Electric at 908.735.6218 to schedule electrical service upgrades.

Symptoms of ailing electrical systems include:

• Inadequate number of outlets. If your New Jersey home does not have enough outlets in each room, you may be relying on a twisted mess of extension cords and power strips. Overloading outlets with multiple cords and appliances can trip a circuit or start a fire. Some older NJ homes have only one to two outlets per room, which also limits furniture and décor placement. Maglio Electric technicians install multiple outlets per room to meet your electrical needs and free you from unsightly extension cords and power strips.
• Tripped circuit breakers. Circuit breakers are designed to trip when overloaded or when there is a short circuit or electrical problem. To avoid constantly tripping a circuit, unplug appliances. If this is an inconvenience, think about upgrading your circuit breaker to accommodate more electronic equipment.
• Dimming lights. When lights in your home flicker or fade in and out during appliance use, you may need a power upgrade. A power upgrade enhances lighting and electronic performance and accommodates increased energy use.
• Problems with multiple appliances. If you are tired of choosing between the microwave and the coffee pot to avoid tripping a circuit, discuss your home energy needs with our experienced electrical technicians. With an upgraded electrical system, you can use your appliances when and where you wish—without inconvenient, risky circuit problems.
• Code violations. When building, renovating, or adding to your home, make sure that it meets current NJ electrical codes. If your property does not conform to the latest electrical standards, you could be denied a building permit or delay your project’s completion date. Electrical codes were put in place to safeguard your property and its occupants. While upgrades may be a significant investment, they are proven to increase property value and improve electrical performance.
