Does Your Home Have Federal Pacific Electric Panels ? - HAZARD

NOTE: If your home has a Federal Pacific Electric Panel. Here is a picture of a failed FPE circuit breaker on the left and what it should look like on the right. We removed these from a house just last year. It is well documented online Inspecta-Pedia and in class action lawsuits transcripts that FPE panels and breakers fail to trip during overcurrent which breakers are meant to do to protect your system. This failure to trip can cause fire. We will provide you with additional information from Electrical Inspectors and several online sources regarding this hazard. We recommend that Federal Pacific Electric panels be replaced entirely. If you would like to move forward with replacing this panel with a safer and better quality panel (with a lifetime manufacturer warranty) please do not hesitate to contact us.

Water Damage at Panel

Water and moisture can lead to rust and corrosion in electrical panels. The above photo illustrates that the bus bar where the breakers connect to get power is corroded. The panel had to be replaced, and the where the water was intruding into the home had to be found and sealed properly. Damage like this can lead to a fire. You can visit Inspectapedia for their take.
