I Want to Upgrade My Fuse Box – What’s Next?
If you live in or are planning to purchase a home that still relies on fuse box technology, there are several things to consider before planning an upgrade. If your box is exempt from current electrical building codes, it is important to consider the cost of replacement; for example, your insurance provider may require you to completely upgrade your electrical system and breaker box wiring and location before agreeing to insure any additions or changes to the current systems capacity. To prevent electrical fires, the risk of electrocution, burns, shocks and property damage, the law requires your electricity technician to assess supporting wiring and electrical sub panels, to make sure it is properly gauged and insulated.

The Right and Wrong Way to Replace an Electrical Breaker
The National Electrical Code is in place to protect you and your Atmore’s property from risks like electrocution, shock, burns, electrical fires, and equipment and property damage. Doing work to your circuit breaker box on your own could put you and your family in danger. If you find your breakers are constantly tripping, you may think replacing the switch with a larger amperage capacity is the solution, however, there is a risk that the wires will overheat and erupt into flames if they are not gauged to carry an increased load.
