Electrical Panel and Service Upgrade Questions
My breaker is melted or smells hot. Is that an emergency?
Yes. Shut the power off at the panel if you can do it safely, then call (402) 490-4016. We come out the same day. A melted breaker usually means replacing that breaker. It doesn't always mean you need a new panel.
My power is out. Can you come today?
Yes, we come out the same day for outages. Before you call, check your panel for a tripped breaker. A lot of "no power" calls turn out to be one tripped breaker. If resetting it doesn't work, or it trips again, call us.
Do you quote panel upgrades over the phone?
No. Derek needs to see your panel and your home's electrical setup first. He comes out for an on-site estimate, then sends the official estimate that evening or the next evening. Once you accept, we schedule the work.
Can I finance a panel upgrade?
Yes, through Wisetack. You can check your monthly payment before you apply, there's no hard credit check, and approval takes minutes. Plans include 0% interest for 3 months. Your application goes straight to Wisetack, so we never see your financial information.
Is panel work covered by a warranty?
Yes. Panel work carries the same 1-year warranty as every job, covering labor and materials we purchase. Proton Electric is licensed (license #54179) and insured, and Derek does every panel job himself.
