Residential Circuit Breaker Services
Faulty Circuit Breaker Replacement
A circuit breaker that repeatedly trips, won’t reset, feels unusually warm, or shows visible signs of damage may need to be replaced.
However, a faulty breaker isn’t always the cause of repeated electrical problems. Breakers can trip because of overloaded circuits, short circuits, damaged wiring, faulty appliances, or other electrical issues.
McKee’s Electric Company can inspect the affected circuit and determine whether the breaker needs to be replaced or whether another electrical problem needs to be addressed.
When a breaker replacement is necessary, we can install an appropriately rated replacement that is compatible with your electrical panel.
- Signs you may need circuit breaker service include:
Breakers that trip frequently - A breaker that won’t reset
Breakers that feel hot - Burning smells coming from the electrical panel
- Buzzing or unusual sounds from the panel
- Visible damage or discoloration
- Circuits that repeatedly lose power
- An electrical panel that is outdated or inadequate for your home’s needs
GFCI Circuit Breaker Installation & Replacement
Ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection is designed to help protect people from electrical shock by monitoring electrical current and interrupting power when a ground fault is detected.
McKee’s Electric Company can install or replace GFCI breakers when appropriate for your electrical system.
GFCI protection is particularly important in areas where electricity may be exposed to moisture or water. Depending on the configuration of your home’s electrical system, GFCI protection may be provided through a breaker or individual receptacle.
If your GFCI breaker is tripping repeatedly, won’t reset, or appears damaged, professional troubleshooting can determine whether the breaker needs replacement or if another electrical issue is causing the problem.
AFCI / Arc-Fault Breaker Installation & Replacement
Arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) protection is designed to detect certain types of unintended electrical arcing and interrupt the circuit before an electrical problem becomes more serious.
McKee’s Electric Company provides AFCI breaker installation and replacement in Florida for residential electrical systems.
If you’re remodeling your home, upgrading an electrical panel, adding circuits, or addressing an existing electrical issue, our electricians can evaluate your system and determine whether AFCI protection or replacement is appropriate.
Properly selected and installed arc-fault protection can be an important component of a modern residential electrical system.
Circuit Breaker Upgrades for Older Homes
Older electrical panels and breaker systems may not be designed around the electrical demands of today’s homes.
Modern homeowners may need power for larger HVAC systems, appliances, home offices, entertainment equipment, electric vehicles, pools, outdoor equipment, and other electrical loads.
If your electrical panel or breakers are outdated, McKee’s Electric Company can evaluate your system and determine whether breaker replacement, additional circuits, surge protection, or a larger electrical upgrade may be appropriate.
