Panels and Meters

There are many homes in the Victoria area that have old and outdated electrical services.An electrical service is the outside panel and meter coming into your home.In homes that 40 years or older, Federal Pacific panels have been installed which are not made any more.You can still get breakers for them but they are more expencive and harder to find.Generally older homes have 60 to 100 amp services which may have been fine 40 years ago but now we have more appliances and A/C s ,which demand more electricity.I recomend upgrading your service to 200 amp.It will cost you in the short term but will add value safety and protection to your home.As always if you have any questions , give me a call at 361 433-6039.John
