How Fuse Boxes Work

The electrical system in your home is known as a “closed loop” system where electricity flows throughout the system to power devices as needed. However, this system can only handle so much electricity at one time. If your electronics call for more power than can be safely delivered, the fuse box will cut off power before a fire starts or any damage can be done.

Whether you’re located in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Eden Prairie, or beyond, Randy’s Electric is here to help. Call 612-470-0914 or contact us online to schedule service.

When to Replace Your Fuse Box

When a circuit experiences an excess power surge, a fuse’s metal strip will melt, causing the circuit to be interrupted. This circuit will not work again until the fuse has been replaced. If this rarely happens, there is no need for concern. However, if it happens on a regular basis, that means that your fuse box is no longer properly regulating electricity and must be replaced. Signs your fuse box is overloaded include:

The fuses need to be replaced frequently.
Some appliances in your home can’t run simultaneously.
The fuse box is making popping or hissing noises.
The walls around outlets feel warm.

Is your fuse box showing these signs? It’s time to replace your fuse box. The expert technicians at Randy’s Electric can help you choose the right replacement for your Minneapolis–Saint Paul area home. Call us at 612-470-0914 or contact us online today!

The most important reason for having your fuse box checked by a professional electrician, and upgraded or replaced if necessary, is to ensure the safety of your home’s electrical system. You may also need to upgrade your fuse box if your home’s electrical system cannot meet your modern day needs for power.

Fuse box upgrades can be performed in as little as one day unless the condition of the box and its surrounding wiring requires more extensive work. If it is necessary to replace not only the wiring to the fuse box and the wiring from the box to major appliances, the process will take longer.

Even if your fuse box is working properly it is important that you have a trained electrician inspect it regularly. We will look for problems such as damage from blown fuses, excessive rust, or signs of power surges. We will also tell you whether your fuse box can be repaired, needs to be upgraded, or if a circuit breaker would be a better option for your home.

Whatever your fuse box repair or replacement needs, contact the electricians at Randy’s Electric so you can rest assured the job will be done right the first time, guaranteed.
