About Panel Upgrades

Several decades ago technology wasn’t as advanced as it is today. With that being said, if you have an older home and have not had a panel upgrade recently, you may want to consider have one done. Panels installed decades ago have been proven to be inadequate and unsafe. Below you will find a list of panels that should be upgraded to today’s standards:

• Zinsco Electric Panels
• Fuse Boxes
• Pushmatic Electric Panels
• Federal Pacific Electric Company Electric Panels

If you think you might have one of these panels for your home, give Rortech Electric a call today. One of our Bay Area electricians will come to your home to make sure your electrical panel is keeping your family safe.
