PANEL UPGRADES Does your Home still have an old style fuse panel? Are your current circuits overloaded? Have circuits been "doubled-up" on breakers? Has new wiring been added over the years, and does it meet code? Has your Insurance Company refused to renew your home insurance policy? Is your panel over 15 years old? ______________________________________________ !! SAFETY ALERT !! Do you have a Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) breaker or panel in your home? See http://www.inspect-ny.com/fpe/fpepanel.htm for more information. Do you have a Zinsco breaker or panel in your home? See http://www.inspect-ny.com/electric/Zinsco.htm for more information. Homes equipped with these two brands are at a greater risk of fire and other electrical hazards. Do you have a pan el with another manufacturer's breaker in it? BEWARE! This can happen fairly easily because many brands are mechanically interchangeable (which means they may "fit"), but in most cases this will VOID the UL listing of both the panel and breaker due to improper installation. If there were a fire and it was decided that the panel played a part in it, this action may then void your Insurance Policy. (Feel free to call and ask your insurance company about this.) _____________________________________________ If you have answered YES to any of these questions your home may be in need of a service panel upgrade. Modern Circuit Breaker Panels are more convenient, and are built to far higher safety standards than outdated fuse panels. Extra protection is incorporated into the latest eq uipment in the form of circuit breakers. The circuit breakers protect every device in the house with sensitive circuitry that responds quickly if there is a fault, opening the circuit and eliminating the risk of danger. There is also excellent protection available in the form of Ground-Fault Circuit Breakers and Arc-Fault Circuit Breakers. Older equipment and wiring systems di d not have to support the modern appliances of our day. Overloading and doubling up of circuits is commonly seen on older outdated fuse panels, the result of improper installations that were never inspected. This can cause fires. Upgrading or replacing these dangers in your home by installing a new Circuit Breaker Panel can eliminate these potentially dangerous situations. Here are some reasons to Upgrade your Panel: Reduce the chance of an electrical fire. First, have your system inspected by one of our highly qualified technicians. They will help you to decide whether you should have your outdated fuse or breaker panel replaced with a modern Circuit Breaker Panel. Call Wired Right today to schedule an appointment.

SURGE PROTECTION Today, homes are filled with sensitive electronics that are easily damaged by common power surges, spikes or voltage impulses. A lightning storm near a residence can deliver a high energy electrical surge that can enter a home and destroy appliances, televisions, stereo equipment, and other electrical products. The cost of replacing electronic equipment in an average home is $8,000. This figure can easily top $20,000 if the homeowner has a sophisticated entertainment system, or a home office. Wired Right by Ruhd Electric Service recommends that to fully protect your investment, consider a 2-stage approach to Surge Protection. Stage 1 - Primary Protection for Service Entrance Stage 2 - Secondary Protection at Point of Use By installing 2 stages of surge protection, your electronic equipment can be protected from most power surges, spikes and voltage impulses that are common everyday. Do not underestimate an unchecked high voltage surge that can wipe out your investment instantly, or the smaller everyday surges that can d egrade the electronic components in your home slowly over time. Call Wired Right today for an evaluation of your surge protection requirements.
