Understanding Your Electrical Panel

The electrical panel plays a pivotal role in your building, be it a house, condo, townhouse, or business, serving as a critical junction that receives power from the municipal grid and distributes it throughout your electrical system. In addition to acting as a distribution hub, the panel also operates as a “breaker box”, containing breakers for every circuit in your system. On opening the panel’s metal door, you will typically see a vertical arrangement of circuit breaker toggles. While some people may refer to this as a “fuse box”, modern electrical systems for residential and commercial buildings generally do not use fuses. An overloaded circuit can burn out a fuse, whereas a breaker simply switches off.

Single pole circuit breakers, distinguished by their single toggle, cater to 120-volt circuits and can manage 15 or 20 amps. For a deeper understanding of this, you can check the information on the pages about outlets and switches.

On the other hand, “double pole” breakers, identified by their two toggles, serve 240-volt circuits and can handle between 15 and 70 amps.

The panel has built-in safety features that ensure any overloaded circuit will cause the corresponding breaker to trip, or switch off, preventing system damage and ensuring safety. If a circuit trips occasionally or rarely in your home, it’s perfectly acceptable to reset the circuit by switching it back on at the panel. This might occur when high-powered devices like hair dryers or vacuums share the same circuit, or perhaps a blender and another power-intensive device. However, if this happens frequently, it might be necessary to seek the advice and inspection of a professional electrician.

At times, a circuit might trip at a local GFCI outlet. If you’ve checked all the breakers, and they’re all in the ‘on’ position, but the circuit still doesn’t have power, try resetting it at the GFCI outlet. If neither method works, it might be time to reach out to us. Johnson Power Solutions offers 24-hour emergency electrician services to help address such issues.

During the holiday season, have you ever found your Christmas lights and garage fridge frequently trip? This happens because exterior and garage outlets often share the same circuit, and plugging in a fridge in the garage typically pushes the circuit’s capacity to its limit. Adding Christmas lights to the mix often pushes the limit beyond its capacity. Given that the breaker box is usually located near the garage, it’s often a good idea to install a separate circuit solely for the garage fridge.

In the event of frequent circuit tripping, it might be necessary to consider upgrades. These could involve either upgrading the existing circuit or introducing a new, independent one. Johnson Power Solutions is here to guide you through all your electrical panel repair and upgrade needs in Gilbert, Arizona.

Whole-Home Surge Protection – Layered Whole System Surge Protection

When hearing “surge protector”, most people picture a power strip purchased from a local electronics store. While these come in varying quality levels, many lack genuine surge protection. Those that do offer protection typically only safeguard devices plugged into them locally. But what about the rest of your home’s electrical items?

From kitchen appliances and entertainment systems to hobby equipment and other devices, a typical home might contain between $5,000 – $15,000 worth of electronics susceptible to damage by a voltage surge.

A surge refers to a temporary voltage spike. Voltage measures the pressure in an electrical system. Most people are aware that surges can occur during a lightning storm. Indeed, lightning can cause surges, but they are more commonly caused by system feedback – internal surges. In Arizona, these are more frequent in summer when air conditioners are in constant operation. As Arizona’s monsoon season spans June 15 to Sept 30, Arizona homes are particularly vulnerable to surges during summer, whether due to electrical storms or your AC.

The most reliable way to protect all electronic devices in your home is to install a whole-home surge protector at the power source – the electrical panel. Johnson Power Solutions offers expert installation services in this area to help safeguard your home.

Whole system surge protection is prevalent in businesses, especially those with high-value electronics and machinery to protect. Some commercial electrical systems have layered surge protection, where a surge protector is installed at the control panel, at various points along the circuit, possibly outlets with built-in surge protection, and even power strips with surge protection. Considering the cost-effectiveness of surge protection compared to replacing expensive electronics or data loss, it’s a sound investment for many businesses.
