Project Spotlight: Panel & Safety Upgrades in Bridgeville, DE

Our team was recently called to a home in Bridgeville, Delaware, where the homeowners were experiencing a recurring problem: their HVAC breaker kept tripping whenever the heat was set to a higher temperature.

During the visit, we completed a full electrical evaluation of the home. The HVAC equipment showed signs of age and possible moisture exposure, and the breaker connections feeding the system were in poor condition. We also inspected their 200-amp Square D Homeline panel, which was fully maxed out and built with a limited 10-year rating. We explained the safety and reliability benefits of upgrading to a lifetime-rated panel with proper capacity for future needs.

As we continued the assessment, we found several worn switches and receptacles throughout the home—common in older Sussex County homes. With winter approaching and the increased use of space heaters, we recommended updating these devices to prevent arcing, nuisance tripping, or unexpected loss of power.

The homeowners chose to move forward with a full electrical panel upgrade and complete replacement of aging receptacles, carried out by our team of trained technicians.
