Electric panels typically last 25-40 years. However, if your panel is struggling to keep up with your electricity demands, it might be time for an upgrade.
While both serve the purpose of interrupting the flow of electricity in the event of an overload, a fuse melts when overloaded and needs to be replaced, whereas a breaker switch simply trips and can be reset.
It's recommended that any work involving an electric panel be performed by a professional electrician due to the potential safety risks involved.
The cost of a panel upgrade varies depending on factors like your area, the complexity of the installation, and the specific type of panel being installed. It's best to get an estimate from a professional electrician.
