Is your home’s electrical panel trying to tell you something?

Many homeowners don’t think about their electrical panel until something goes wrong—like flickering lights, tripped breakers, or worse, an electrical fire risk. An outdated or overloaded electrical panel can’t keep up with today’s modern appliances, home offices, or EV chargers. If your panel is more than 25–30 years old, it might be time to consider an upgrade—and Eaton is a name you can trust when it comes to safety, performance, and long-term reliability.






What Is an Electrical Panel?


Think of your electrical panel as the heart of your home’s power system. It distributes electricity from your utility line to the outlets, lights, and appliances in your home.





How Long Does a Panel Last?


Most electrical panels are built to last 25 to 40 years. But lifespan can depend on:

  • The quality of the panel and breakers
  • Environmental conditions (heat, humidity, corrosion)
  • How much demand you’re placing on your system.

If your panel was installed before the 1990s—or if your home has been renovated or added onto since—it's likely time to evaluate its capacity.





Warning Signs to Upgrade


  • Breakers trip frequently
  • Lights flicker or dim unexpectedly
  • You rely on power strips or extension cords often
  • Your panel makes buzzing or crackling noises
  • You’re planning to add major appliances or a home EV charger
