Your electrical panel is the command center of your home. When it can’t keep up with modern energy demands, it’s not just inconvenient — it’s a safety hazard.
TRUE Electric, Plumbing, Heat & Air provides licensed electrical panel upgrades and breaker box replacements throughout Cleburne, Burleson, Joshua, and Johnson County, TX. Our certified electricians do the job right, to code, the first time.
A panel that cannot handle your home’s load is a leading cause of residential electrical fires. If you are experiencing any of the above, call TRUE for a no-pressure assessment.
1. Electric vehicles. A Level 2 home EV charger requires a dedicated 240V, 50-amp circuit. Most homes built before 2010 do not have the panel capacity to support one without an upgrade. As EV ownership continues to grow across Cleburne and Burleson, this is becoming one of the most common reasons homeowners call us.
2. Remote work and smart home technology. Home offices, server equipment, whole-home audio systems, smart thermostats, and security systems have dramatically increased residential electrical loads over the last decade. Older 100-amp panels were not designed for this.
3. Aging infrastructure. A large portion of Cleburne’s housing stock was built in the 1970s through 1990s with 100-amp panels that are approaching or past their useful service life. Therefore Insurance companies are increasingly flagging these panels and, in some cases, requiring upgrades before renewing policies.
For just $40 a month, TRUE Members receive priority scheduling, no overtime fees on any repair, annual HVAC tune-ups, and yearly plumbing and electrical safety checks. It is the smartest way to stay ahead of problems before they become emergencies.
Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a single day. Larger jobs — such as upgrades requiring utility coordination with Oncor — may take two days. TRUE will give you a clear, honest timeline when you receive your quote.
It depends on your panel’s current available capacity. Many Cleburne and Burleson homes with 100-amp panels will need an upgrade to safely add a Level 2 EV charger. A TRUE electrician can assess your load and let you know whether an upgrade is necessary or whether a dedicated circuit can be added within your current capacity.
Federal Pacific Stab-Lok breakers have a documented history of failing to trip during overloads. While not every FPE panel will cause a fire, the consensus among licensed electricians and fire safety organizations is that replacement is the safest course of action — particularly in panels that are 30 or more years old. TRUE recommends an inspection if you believe you may have one.
Yes. Financing options are available for qualified customers. A panel upgrade is a safety investment, and we want to make sure it is accessible to every North Texas homeowner regardless of budget. Ask about current terms when you call.
