Electrical Panel Upgrades & Recalled-Panel Replacement

Licensed, journeyman-run service across Wasilla, Palmer & the greater Mat-Su Valley. On time, every time.

The electrical panel in your home is the single most important piece of safety equipment in your electrical system. When breakers get old and tired, just like car parts, they begin to fail. You can get nuisance tripping, or worse, arcing and sparking, which can lead to a fire.

Old, Outdated & Recalled Panels

If your panel is old, outdated, or has been recalled by the governing safety authorities, AK Sparky’s Electric can switch it out for a newer, safer one. Take a look at the brand name on the panel in your home, if it’s one of these, give us a call. These brands have been discontinued due to safety recalls:

  • FPE (Federal Pacific)
  • Zinsco
  • Challenger

Want the full story on why these are dangerous? Read our guide on the Federal Pacific, Zinsco & Challenger panel recall.

The Right Panel Replacement for Your Home

Another safety issue we find often is the wrong-size breaker for the size of wire used. We’ve been inside many homes where there’s a 50-amp breaker on wire only rated for 20 amps, a recipe for melted wires that can lead to serious life-and-safety issues. Believe it or not, there’s a science to electricity draw, so breaker ratings really matter.

Panel Upgrades for RVs & Welders

If you need a larger-amp outlet installed for a welder or an RV, we’ll make sure it’s added to your home and panel correctly, so you and your family stay safe while enjoying the tools and toys you love. AK Sparky’s Electric takes safety very seriously. The most important thing to us is coming home safely to our family each day, and we’re sure that’s just as much a priority for you. Let our residential electrician help keep your home electrically safe.
