Can you change a 100 amp panel to 200 amp?

• <div><p>A 100 amp electrical service panel can't convert into a 200 amp panel simply by switching the breakers or adding circuits. Upgrading from 100 to 200 amps typically requires <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-a-breaker.htm">replacing the circuit box</a> and updating the electrical service coming into the house. Your electrician will handle the details of the project to ensure a safe and thorough installation.</p></div>

What costs the most on your electric bill?

• <div><p>Your heating and cooling systems cost you the most on your electric bill and make up 50% of your bill on average. Your washing machine, dryer, oven, and stove contribute significantly to your electric bill as well. Lights, fans, and smaller electronics add up, but aren’t the biggest energy consumers. You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/10-ways-reduce-your-home-s-power-use.htm">reduce your power usage</a> by setting optimal temperatures on your thermostat and investing in energy-efficient appliances.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if smart light switches work in my home?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-install-smart-light-switch.htm">Smart light switches</a> are designed to work with traditional switch wiring, so they should work within your home. However, you will need a Wi-Fi connection to use them properly. Older models may use different connection standards like ZigBee, which must be supported to control them.</p></div>

Q: Can a faulty light switch cause a fire?

• <div><p>A faulty light switch can be a serious fire hazard. Light switches with exposed wiring, loose connections, or other electrical problems can cause overheating or sparking in or behind the switch, igniting nearby flammable material. If you suspect your light switch is faulty, turn off power at the breaker and contact an electrician. </p></div>

Q: What happens if you use the wrong wire size in an electrical circuit?

• <div><p>The wrong-sized wire can lead to several safety hazards, including structural fires, surges, power outages from tripped breakers, and electrocution. It&rsquo;s important to follow the American Wire Gauge system and the National Electrical Code guidelines to safely wire a home. Electrical wiring is not safe for homeowners to handle and is best left to a licensed electrician.</p></div>

Fantastic. Cannot recommend highly enough. We bought a house built in 1957, and the last remodel had been done sometime in the 70's. We completely gutted the main floor and attic to studs, and rebuilt from there. New layout, the whole deal. Ward did a complete rewire, new panel, data lines,...
