Electrical panel tune ups are an important part of keeping your house safe from fire and intermittent light flickering. Electrical panel tune ups should only be done by a licensed electrical contractor due to the danger of electrocution and possible death. The job consists of making sure that all connections to the breakers, neutral bar and even the main feeder wires are all torqued and that there is no oxidation or burnt areas on the wires due to a bad connection. The main bus bars in the panel should also be checked where the breakers clip on to the bus for burn marks due to a loose fitting breaker. Should any of these conditions exist, there is the possibility of having a panel failure or fire. Having your panels inspected by an electrical contractor, every few years is highly recommended.
